It's easy to find out if solar makes sense
for you with the help of our solar electric
contractors. You select a contractor from our
Trade Ally Network, who will help you choose
a PV system that is right for your needs and
provide a system quote estimating annual performance,
installation date, and your cost after incentive
deductions. The contractor will explain maintenance
and warranty details, and will help you understand
how to apply for tax credits available from
the state.
Eligibility requirements
- You must be an Oregon customer of
Portland General Electric or Pacific
Power.
- All projects must by approved by
the Energy Trust prior to installation.
- All systems must be grid-tied and
net metered to qualify.
- Systems must be installed by a qualified
Energy Trust solar contractor. Self-installed
systems do not qualify.
- Systems must be new. Expansions to
existing solar systems are not eligible.
How incentives and tax credits work:
- You select a contractor (Click “Choosing
a Contractor” on the menu above).
- Your contractor submits an incentive
application to the Energy Trust for
pre-approval.
- Your system gets installed by the
contractor (may be subject to an Energy
Trust inspection).
- Energy Trust pays incentive to the
contractor, who then passes it through
to the customer. You pay the
contractor only the net amount after
the incentive.
- Your contractor will help you fill
out Oregon Department of Energy tax
credit application form.
- Customer submits tax credit form
to the Oregon Department of Energy.
