Expected Performance Based Buydown (EPBB)
This program offers upfront rebates on systems below 100kW in size. Rebate amounts are decided by size system location, orientation, and shading. Rebates cover 20-35% of the total installed system cost.

Performance Based Incentive Program (PBI)
This rebate is based on energy production over a 5 year period. Rebates are paid out monthly to the system owner, based on metered power produced. This program is targeted to benefit larger commercial or public sector projects. Usually, PBI covers more than 30% of the installed project cost. Rebate will decline as the program reaches participation milestones. Thus, the longer a business waits to install a solar electric system, the lower the rebate will be.
