San Francisco Gets Aggressive on Solar

Jan 09

San Francisco’s Public Utility Commission approved today Mayor Newsom’s aggressive and generous residential and commercial solar electricity incentives. The rebates would provide between $3,000 and $5,000 for residential solar installations and up to $10,000 for business solar.

This is big news for San Franciscans and really puts solar electricity within reach, especially considering the these incentives are in addition to the $2,000 Federal tax credit and the California Solar Initiative rebates that often run $6,000 or more. Take together these rebates and credits can cover more than 50% of the cost of solar and offers much shorter payback periods.
