Overview
Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems convert sunlight into electricity. They have many cost benefits and are becoming more affordable every day! It is a large investment and it is NOT free, so let's make sure it's the right option for your business!
What incentives are available?
CPS Energy has allocated funds to support the adoption of solar for small businesses (system size under 100kW AC), schools, and non-profit organizations. Rebates for residential homes are not currently offered.
The rebate incentive will be paid as follows when purchasing a system through a registered contractor:
- $0.60 per AC Watt for the first 25kW, $0.40 per AC Watt for kW over 25
- $0.10 per AC Watt premium for projects utilizing local modules
General incentive applies to qualifying commercial projects only. All commercial rebates are capped at $80,000 or 50% of the invoice cost, whichever is less. The rebate for registered non-local installers is reduced to 75% of the local installer rebate amount listed above. CPS Energy guidelines and rebate levels are subject to change without notice. CPS Energy reserves the right to refuse any application/request for incentive payment that does not meet CPS Energy Requirements. For additional information, please review our Solar Program Manual.
