<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Hello Wrenches,<br>
<br>
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. <br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
Do other states have this conflict of interest clause?<br>
<br>
Thanks, <br>
<br>
