Common questions

Is there a solar rebate in Philadelphia?

Yes — the statewide PA Sunshine Solar Program can rebate up to 35% of a residential solar project, capped near $17,500 for PV, on a first-come first-served basis. It stacks with the 30% federal solar tax credit.

Do I need to confirm this rebate is still active in Philadelphia?

Yes. Pennsylvania utilities are transitioning from Act 129 Phase IV (closed May 31, 2026) to Phase V (June 2026–May 2031), and not every utility has published new amounts yet. Confirm current status with PECO before assuming a figure is live.
