Austin Utilities Conserve and Save solar rebate program makes it more affordable for you to install solar technologies on your home or business. The rebate program, includes both solar electric and solar hot water options, and provides a one-time payment of $1 per installed watt for solar electric systems (up to 10 kW) and $15 per square foot net aperture for solar hot water systems (up to $1,200). The rebate is available in conjunction with the 30% federal tax credit for solar technologies and is available on a first come first served basis.

Most experts agree the best way to get full value from your solar system is to perform an energy audit prior to installation. The audit will identify other energy saving opportunities and allow you to repay your solar investment more quickly.
