[RE-wrenches] Installer's grant

[roger dixon]

Try the DSIRE website, http://www.dsireusa.org/.  It lists both state and
federal incentives for renewable energy and energy efficiency.  

 

Up until this year, NJ would penalize a "self install", reducing the rebate
amount by 15%.  We argued against that and they have now removed that
penalty.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Installer's grant

 

Hello Wrenches,

I wanted to see how other states are handling solar grants / rebates on the
homes of installers.  In Ohio there is a grant program that gives $3.00 /
Watt toward residential systems.  Eligible installers must be approved by
the state, and funds are allotted to the installer.  

In this years program, there is a "conflict of interest" clause which says
that installers, employees of installers and subcontractors of installers
are not eligible for any grant funding from the grant received by the
installer.   It is likely that installers can hire their competition to do
installations.

Do other states have this conflict of interest clause?

Thanks,
