Two months ago, San Diego's top residential solar integrator, Sullivan Solar Power, announced its role in running a countywide solar incentive program to assist the region in meeting its renewable energy goals. The San Diego Solar Program allows eligible homeowners to go solar for no upfront cost and receive a substantial cash payment for their involvement. The program successfully closed the first phase of the program Thursday, with 500,000 Watts of solar power to be deployed as a result of the initiative.
"The San Diego Solar Program has been extremely successful in assisting homeowners that might otherwise be on the fence about solar to make the leap and transition to generating clean electricity," said Daniel Sullivan, founder and president of Sullivan Solar Power, "The immediate financial savings plus the guaranteed cash-back payments make going solar a no-brainer."
The program provides participants financing to cover the cost of the solar power systems and cash payments to the participant once a participant's system is installed. According to Sullivan, a typical homeowner with a electric bill of $200 can get the same electricity from solar for $120 and not spend a dime out-of-pocket. On Thursday, the second phase level of incentives opened, where homeowners can receive $0.30/Watt for their solar projects, up to $1500 after the project is completed.
Sullivan Solar Power expects the second phase of the San Diego Solar Program to be exhausted within as little as 2 months as community outreach efforts for the program have increased for the summer. The second phase is limited to 1,000,000 watts of solar capacity or about 150 to 200 homes.
A free San Diego Solar Program luncheon will be taking place for north county San Diego homeowners on Saturday, June 9 at 11 a.m. in the Escondido City Hall (201 N. Broadway, Escondido, CA 92025). The presentation will be one hour and inform residents about solar technology, rebates and incentives, case studies and details of the San Diego Solar Program. RSVP is appreciated.
