heating and pool heating systems will not be eligible.  

Grants are intended to support systems that will supply between 50% and 80% of a customer’s annual domestic or process hot water needs.

Rebate Incentive Amounts

• The rebates will be determined by the usable annual thermal output, in MMBtus.
• Residential projects: $275/MMBtu

Program Details

Solar thermal incentives are in the form of rebates based on system output (Btu production) as predicted by the Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) and industry standard software.  The
incentive is based upon the predicted usable annual output of the system (in millions of Btus – “MMBtu”) as determined by the system size, type of collectors,
tilt, azimuth (compass heading) and shading.  The maximum size of any rebate will be limited to the thermal output necessary to meet the domestic hot water needs of the building’s occupants.
