Trico Electric Cooperative - SunWatts Incentive Program

If you install a solar water heater, Trico Electric Cooperative will rebate you $0.40 for each kilowatt-hour of electricity your system is expected to save in its first year of operation. Contact Trico to apply and get your system's expected savings calculated to determine your rebate amount.

The SunWatts Program provides your residential and commercial customers a financial incentive based on projected first-year energy savings; you should document expected kilowatt-hour reductions to help customers claim the $0.40-per-kWh rebate and understand the program's value proposition.

This performance-based rebate program incentivizes solar water heater adoption among Trico's residential, commercial, and federal government customer classes by offering $0.40 per expected first-year kWh saved, shifting the customer acquisition cost to verifiable energy performance rather than a flat incentive amount.
