Going solar + battery isn’t one thing. It’s three. A home that stays on when the grid goes down. Real money back in your family’s bank. And a battery that quietly helps your neighbours when winter cold pushes the grid hard. We picked this work because all three matter.
Wildfires. Winter storms. Grid overloads. BC outages are getting more frequent. An approved home battery keeps your fridge, lights, heat pump, and well pump running through every one of them. This isn’t a luxury — for families in Kamloops, Squamish, or anywhere along BC’s grid edge, it’s essential infrastructure.
A cheque from BC Hydro for up to $10,000 lands 30 to 45 days after install. Peak Saver pays you about $3,000 over a decade. Your power bills drop another $5K to $9K depending on your city. One catch: skip Peak Saver enrollment and the battery rebate drops from $5,000 to $1,500 — our installers make sure that never happens.
Solar-equipped homes sell faster and for more — BC buyers pay for lower future bills. And when January cold pushes the grid hard, your enrolled battery quietly shares stored power back to your neighbours. Equity and community, from the same roof.
One trusted installer per city — that’s how we make sure the three good things actually happen. No five-installer auctions, no spam, no data sales. The point of going solar isn’t avoiding lead-farm sites — it’s the three things above. But our model is how we make sure you actually get them.

Honest answers about how the service works, what the BC Hydro rebate gets you, and why we do it this way.
HomePowerRebate is the easiest way for BC homeowners to claim BC Hydro’s solar and battery rebate. You get a real cheque from BC Hydro (up to $10,000), a home that’s worth more at sale, and a battery that quietly helps power your neighbourhood when the grid is stressed. We match you with one approved local installer in your city — never five — and then step out of the way. Free for homeowners, currently serving 14 BC cities across BC.
Most solar lead sites sell your contact info to 5 or 10 installers at once, so you spend weeks fielding cold calls and pushy emails. HomePowerRebate sends your info to exactly one approved local installer — the same trusted company every time in your city — and then we step away. One match, one call, no spam. You stay in control.
Nothing for you. The service is completely free for homeowners. Our installer partners pay us a small referral fee, but only when you decide to book a job. If you don’t move forward, you owe nothing — no subscription, no hidden cost, no catch.
It’s part of BC Hydro’s Power Smart 2.0 program. Eligible BC homeowners can claim up to $10,000 — $5,000 for solar panels and $5,000 for a home battery when enrolled in Peak Saver. Add Peak Saver rewards (~$3,000 over 10 years), lower power bills ($5,000 to $9,000 over a decade depending on city), and a typical home value lift of about 4%, and a BC family gets $18,000 to $22,000 back over 10 years. Plus your enrolled battery helps the grid handle peak demand — that’s how BC homes power BC homes. Read the BC overview →
We currently match homeowners in Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Kamloops, Kelowna, Nanaimo, Prince George, Squamish, Surrey, Vancouver, Vernon, and Victoria. Expanding to more BC cities and California through 2026.
Yes. Every installer in our network is HPCN-certified (Home Performance Contractor Network), which is required by BC Hydro for the rebate as of June 1, 2026. We match each city with one trusted local company so you get accountability, not auction-style chaos.
No. We do not sell homeowner data to third parties. Your info goes to one approved installer in your city — that’s it. We don’t run lead auctions, we don’t bundle leads, and we don’t pass your details to multiple companies.
BC Hydro doesn’t include Tesla products on its approved battery list. If you install a Tesla Powerwall in BC, you get zero rebate — that’s $5,000 left on the table. We install BC Hydro-approved batteries (Eguana Evolve) so homeowners get the full rebate. Read the full story →
No. HomePowerRebate is an independent service. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by BC Hydro. We help homeowners navigate BC Hydro’s Power Smart 2.0 rebate program by matching them with approved local installers.
We’re expanding through 2026, starting with additional BC cities, then other provinces and states with strong solar rebate programs. Join our waitlist and we’ll email you the moment we have an approved local installer ready in your area.
Solar matching done right is slow work — one approved installer per city, one strong partnership at a time. Here’s the roadmap.
Abbotsford, Burnaby, Chilliwack, Fort St. John, Kamloops, Kelowna, Nanaimo, Penticton, Prince George, Squamish, Surrey, Vancouver, Vernon, Victoria. One approved installer per city.
Expanding to additional BC markets through 2026. Every city page already covers the full stack: heat pumps ($4K–$16K), solar, batteries, insulation, water heaters and EV chargers.
Other provinces and states with strong solar rebate programs. Same model: one approved installer per city, no auction, no data sales.
Drop your city and email below. We’ll contact you the moment we have an approved installer ready to serve your area — not a day sooner. One email. No sales calls. No spam.
We’ll email you the moment we’ve got an approved installer serving your area. Until then, no calls, no spam.
HomePowerRebate was built because BC homeowners told us the same story: they wanted to claim BC Hydro’s solar + battery rebate, but every comparison site they tried sold their info to a dozen installers. They got buried in calls. The big rebate cheque felt out of reach because the process was hostile.
We took the opposite approach. One installer per city, picked for HPCN certification and customer reviews. One match per homeowner. No auctions, no bundles, no data sales. Independent of BC Hydro, but transparent about every official source we cite.
Today we serve 14 BC cities. In 2026 we’ll be in more. In 2027 we’ll expand to other provinces and states. Same model the whole way.
