How to apply
- Before you purchase or install your system, review the rebate eligibility criteria below as well as the requirements to connect your system to our electrical grid through the self-generation program. Our guides to solar panels, battery storage systems are also helpful resources.
- Find a licensed contractor to design and install your solar and/or battery storage system. We recommend getting at least three quotes and comparing your quote to B.C. cost averages.
- Before you install, work with your contractor to apply for the self-generation program. If eligible, you’ll apply for the rebate as part of the self-generation application.
- Once your system and self-generation application are pre-approved you may purchase your equipment and have your licensed contractor install the system.
- After you have submitted your final inspection documents and have received approval from BC Hydro to interconnect your system, your rebate application will be processed and paid.
