Since January 2008, PWP has offered one of the highest rebate rates in the nation on solar photovoltaic (PV) through its Pasadena Solar Initiative program. With the $3.15 per watt incentive, residential PV installations and applications are approaching 200 throughout the city and this year Pasadena will reach a milestone of 1 megawatt of solar power.

With so much interest in solar, program funds are depleting and residential rebate rates will decrease to $2.40 per watt on July 1. If you are seriously considering solar, be sure to apply soon before the sun sets on the higher rebate rate. Visit www.cityofpasadena.net/solar to start the application process.
