Demand for Solar will soon outpace WA State’s Cash Incentive offer

Solar above Tacoma Narrows

Wanting some solar? A new WA State Incentive program was launched October 2017.

The plan was to have a four year offer, until the $110-150M was maxed out.

Yet…

July 2018 status report by WSU Energy Program shows the program is almost 75% subscribed. Seattle City Light is over 50% full, and PSE is 65%. PSE is the state’s largest electric utility.

The offer of cash paid for solar kWhs will end once capacity of your utility or the state program monetary cap is reached, whichever comes first.

The rate of solar adoption since Oct 2017 is quicker than expected.
