Pennsylvania Power & Light (PPL) offers rebates on a first-come-first-serve basis for PV and for non-profit and government customers that install PV systems. The rebates are $2.00 per installed watt, up to $500,000 for non-profits and government buildings and $5,000 per residential customers. Non-profits and government designation includes schools, colleges or universities, and all levels of government. Homeowners, non-profits, and government customers may also qualify for geothermal heat pump system rebates. To qualify for either the PV rebate or the geothermal system rebate, all components must be new.
PPL’s rebate program is retroactive to solar systems installed on or after July 1, 2009. The current applications have an expiration date of May 31, 2011.
The Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency reported that residential rebates may not be available as of July 2010, but PPL’s site still lists them as available.
