Solar Rebates And Incentives

Jackson Electric Membership Corporation (Jackson EMC), which serves over 185,000 residential customers, offers rebates to those customers who install solar powered systems. In exchange for these incentives, Jackson EMC retains the rights to any renewable energy credits (RECs) associated with the energy production of these systems. Residential customers may qualify for the one-time rebate of $250 per kilowatt (kW) of DC installed, up to 10 kW. In order to qualify, they must select a trained and certified North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners (NABCEP) contractor to install the system, which must be certified by the Florida Solar Energy Center. In addition, the customer's system must meet Jackson EMC requirements and be pre-approved for interconnection and net metering. Rebates are not payable to entities that own panels and lease them to members. Jackson EMC also offers a solar site survey at no charge to the residential customer.
