Solar Photovoltaic Rebate
Only purchases made between October 1, 2011 and September 30, 2012 qualify.
Energy from the sun can be directly converted to electricity
using solar cells, also known as photovoltaics or PVs. Today´s
solar electric systems have 20 to 25 year warranties, are
pollution free and can be used to offset your utility power
or as stand-alone power for remote applications. The down
side to this technology is that it costs three to five times
more than utility power.
CPI has developed an incentive program for those wishing
to harness power from the sun. The rebate amount is $500 per
kW (maximum $3000) for residential applications. The system must be installed
by a State
of Oregon certified contractor and qualify for the Oregon
State tax credit. Rebates depend on funding availability. Solar installations must be pre-approved on a first-come, first-served basis.

Customers who install a residential PV system may also be
eligible for our net
metering program where you can sell power you don't use
back to us.
