Murrieta Offers $1000 Solar Rebate

Update:  July 13, 2011

From the City of Murrieta on the Solar Rebate Program:

"We have received approval to add 38 more rebates to the Murrieta Solar Rebate Program.  If you remember, the City of Murrieta committed to sending out 72, $1,000 rebates for approved residential solar installations (purchased systems, not PPAs or leases).  We originally settled on 72 rebates by taking the average annual solar installation in Murrieta over a 3-year period, which came out to 24 per year.  We assumed, especially in light of a horrible economy where residents had little/no chance of home equity loans, that we would have funding for the full 3 years.  We were surprisingly mistaken. 

We have now processed our 70^th rebate.  Had we not had the commitment of our City Council to continue this funding, the program would be wrapping up.  But I’m happy to announce we still have 40 rebates in total to pay out (there are up to 10 being installed right now, but rebates are paid out on a first come/first paid process after final inspection).  Fortunately, I am able to speak to many of the residents that come in to drop off their paperwork for the rebate, and I can say that an overwhelming amount are highly satisfied with their systems and the company that installed them.  So on behalf of the City of Murrieta, we appreciate your hard work, honesty, work ethic, and most of all, providing a cost-efficient, clean energy supply for our residents," said Brian Ambrose, Sr. Management Analyst, City of Murrieta

Update:  June 17 2011.  

To support the Murrieta Home Improvement Incentive Project, HelioPower, a Murrieta based solar installation firm, will extend its $500 cash back offer to Murrieta homeowners who go solar on or before July 13, 2011.  The HelioPower $500 cash back offer is due to close on June 21,  2011. 

The extended $500 cash back offer is designed to cover the estimated $250 permit fee rebate from the city.  HelioPower cannot guarantee that project construction plans would be completed in time to meet the city’s window of July 5th to July 13th for permit applications.  Thus we will extend this cash back offer to cover the cost of the permit. 

We hope Murrieta residents will jump on board quickly to go solar for $500 cash back.  Residents who move quickly may also secure the city’s $1000 rebate.  Financing programs including $0 down solar are also available from HelioPower.

As of early June there were 45 solar rebates available from the City of Murrieta.

In April of 2010, the City of Murrieta began the Solar Rebate Program to incentivize residents to purchase a solar system.  This rebate is open to purchased systems on homes, not PPA’s or leases.  The City made available seventy-two $1,000 rebates with the expectation that it would take a minimum of 2 years until the rebates were fully paid out (based on past history). 

For as little as a $0 down for qualified customers, homeowners can go solar with the nation’s leading home solar power financing company, SunRun.
