Can PACE Help You Go Solar?

Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs are growing in popularity as a financing mechanism for energy efficiency retrofits and solar energy systems.  With PACE, and related AB 811 programs, cities can help their residential and commercial property owners use less energy and generate their own green electricity.  They can also spur economic development through cost savings and job creation.

The Western Riverside Council of Governments (WRCOG) has launched the nation’s largest financing program to help residential and commercial property owners’ pay for the installation of solar panels and other building improvements that will save energy.

Two programs are available. The Commercial Energy Retrofit Application provides financing for small and mid-sized commercial projects that produce less than 125 kilowatts of power. Large commercial projects producing more will be financed through WRCOG’s Commercial Properties Energy Program. Both are based on California’s Property Assessed Clean Energy legislation enacted through AB 811.

HelioPower can help you determine if your property is right for solar and assist you with PACE and non-PACE solar financing options.
