State and Federal solar power rebates and tax incentives

Why should you consider a solar power system?

Solar power systems lock in lower electric rates FOREVER.

Solar rebates and/or tax credits are offered by many states, including CA, AZ, HI, CO, and OR. Ask Us how much you qualify for (not all systems are equal).

California Solar Initiative - CSI

The California Solar Initiative (CSI) is the solar rebate program for California consumers that are customers of the investor-owned utilities - Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E), Southern California Edison (SCE), San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E). Together with the rebate program for New Solar Homes and rebate programs offered through the dozens of publicly owned utilities in the state - the CSI program is a key component of the Go Solar California campaign for California.
