Project Showcase

Edmonton Solar Rebate Program

Project Type: Community Initiative

Location: City of Edmonton

Technologies: Solar 

The City of Edmonton introduced a pilot project in 2010 to encourage the uptake of solar PV in the City. From a $200,000 fund, the pilot paid $3/watt of installed capacity  to a maximum of $9000 for single solar-electric systems in residential homes and  $18,000 for commercial installations.All proposed projects were subject to basic technology and installation standards to ensure they would be operating at high efficiency. The pilot project rapidly achieved full subscription and will be used to help inform renewable energy funding projects moving forward.
