Rebates aim to encourage solar power adoption

BC Hydro has announced new rebates for the installation of rooftop solar and battery-storage systems. The rebates could save homeowners as much as $10,000. The Crown corporation generates energy for 95% of British Columbians.

The Chamber supports Climate Action Leadership, such as the work being done to transition the province to sustainable power sources.

BC Hydro is also planning rebates of up to $150,000 for businesses, local governments and others. More details on that plan will be available later this month.

Currently, 98% of the power generated for BC’s integrated grid comes from clean or renewable resources.
