Smarter Roof
Solar Incentive Programs Update • California Solar Initiative (CSI) – the solar industry
in California has installed over 72,900 solar PV systems totaling 730 MW (MegaWatts) since January 1, 2007 (about 25% of the 2016 CSI goal).
• CSI rebate in PG&E is now $0.35/WattAC • Federal Income Tax Credit = 30% (no cap or AMT
exclusion) for taxable system owners • Flexible Payment Options, Financing and Service
Packages available from SunRun
Why Solar Makes Sense • Electricity costs continue to rise • Solar pricing has improved (for now) • State and federal incentives to go solar
are strong • Clean renewable solar energy helps
California’s air quality and power needs
