Important changes to funding levels for 2012 Mass Solar Rebates were just announced and there are four key things that you need to know:
1. The Mass Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) set the new rebate levels for the Commonwealth Solar II program significantly lower for 2012 as part of a previously announced plan to phase these rebates out over time in favor of the relatively new (and very successful) SREC program. (SRECS are Solar Renewable Energy Credits that you can earn and sell for every kWatt hour of solar generation that your system generates.)
2. More information about these changes for the Commonwealth Solar II Rebate program can be found in the latest announcement from the Mass Clean Energy Center. Click here for details on 2012 Funding for the Massachusetts solar rebate program:
3. The Massachusetts SREC program has been running successfully for a year and is one of the most successful solar energy incentives in the nation. Details on the SREC Program can be found here:
4. Blue Selenium Solar is advising our customers to take advantage of the opportunity to leverage both of these programs in 2012, before the phase out of the Commonwealth Solar II Program is completed.
The exact timing of the program phase-out has not been announced, but the program announcement memo noted above shows that the program will have $ 1.5 Million/Quarter in funding for Q1 and Q2 of 2012. The levels of funding for Q3 and Q4 are uncertain. Solar Incentives have never been better in Massachusetts and we suggest that you act now to get the maximum positive benefit for your solar installation.
