San Diego Community Power announced Wednesday a $55 million initiative that will offer rebates and incentives to encourage its customers to install solar-plus-battery systems in their homes.
“This is a win-win that reduces strain on the (electric) grid and makes energy more reliable for everyone,” said Colin Santulli, senior director of programs at Community Power . “The program benefits all ratepayers by supporting local energy development through a network of residential batteries.”
For customers who qualify for the Solar Battery Savings program, Community Power will offer upfront rebates on the installation of rooftop solar systems that are paired with battery storage. Customers who already have solar but don’t have batteries can receive rebates on the battery system they install.
