Up-front Incentives cannot exceed $75,000 or 50 percent of the total system cost. Production based incentives payments cannot exceed 60 percent of the total system cost .
- 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.
- Rate applies to first year energy savings only.
- Production based incentives for wind technology apply to systems 100 kW or smaller only.
- CHP incentives may be used in combination for the appropriate components of one system
Please call (602) 216-0318 or contact us by e-mail at renewables@aps.com if you have any questions.
The renewable incentive program is funded by APS customers and is approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission.
