We know the holidays are around the corner. Hannukah is just next weekend, and Christmas? Mere weeks away. That means we’ll be ringing in the new year in the blink of an eye. But while you’re contemplating how much gelt to give or what presents Santa is likely to bring you, consider bringing your solar project up to the front burner. There are several states with great rebate programs whose incentives will change–or end–in the new year. You don’t have to get a project 100 percent complete by December 31st, you just have to have the contract in hand and a rebate application submitted (in most cases). Here are the biggest programs up for the axe, or at least a New Year’s belt-cinching–links will take you to previous posts or to DSIRE for more detail:
- New York: rebate currently up to $20,000 for residential projects, while commercial projects can qualify for up to $200,000
- Wisconsin: rebate currently up to $35,000, commercial up to $75,000
- NHEC customers in New Hampshire: currently offers up to $3,500 (separate from the statewide rebate of up to $6,000)
