Production Based Incentives for Non-residential Photovoltaic - Grid Tied

For non-residential customers, incentives for photovoltaic systems can be paid as a Production Based Incentive (PBI), meaning periodic payments will be made based on the actual production of the system. Terms and a description of the incentive for a grid tied PV system can be found in the Production Based Incentive Reservation Request form.

If you are using an outside installer for you system, they will most likely be familiar with the qualification process, but you should familiarize yourself as well.
