Solar Rebate & Loan Programs

Members who want to replace their existing electric water heater with a solar water heater or replace an existing non-functioning solar water heater can apply for a $1,500 rebate or a zero-interest loan.  This rebate applies to whole system (panels and tank) solar water heater installations only.

Water Heater Timer Rebate 

Apply for a $50 rebate to install a new water heater timer or to retrofit an existing water heater timer. The process is simple. Buy a water heater timer, fill out the application and submit it to Energy Services. A water heater timer can help you achieve energy savings by turning on and off the water heater when you need it instead of leaving it on 24/7. Although you may install the timer yourself, it’s advised to hire a licensed electrician.
