I can understand the appeal of implementing a lottery, especially given that the rebates are financed via public funds. Randomly selecting rebate winners might be perceived as being a more "fair" way to award the funds. Regardless of how New Jersey proceeds, the Clean Energy Program will face a situation where demand for/interest in rebates far outstrips supply. Hence why we're encouraging interested buyers to start with the assumption that they'll be unable to secure a rebate -- and then go from there. Thanks for your comment, bp.
