Residential Solar and Renewable Incentives

Up-front Incentives cannot exceed 50 percent of the total system cost (before any state and federal tax credits are applied).

* The incentive amount for PV systems may be adjusted if the expected performance of the system is lowered due to shading of the PV panels or installation of the panels at a less than optimal direction or angle. Adjustments are detailed in the  PV incentive adjustment chart.

** The customer contribution to the cost of the water heating system must be at least 15 percent of the project cost after all available Federal and State incentives have been applied.

***Solar space heating incentives are based on the first year estimated kWh savings your system provides. Using equipment information provided by your installer, the APS calculation procedure will convert the estimated BTUs your system will produce during its first year of operation into kWh savings. Those kWh savings are then multiplied by $0.75 per kWh to figure your incentive payment. This procedure is typically completed for you by your installer. More information and a list of variables needed for the calculation is available by emailing renewables@aps.com.

 ****APS must review the project details with the contractor or installer to validate the energy output of the system.

The renewable incentive program is funded by APS customers and is approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission.
