Incentives & Financial Resources

Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Programs

California Solar Initiative Program (CSI)
The CSI program provides a financial incentive for the installation of solar photovoltaic panels on a home or business. In order to qualify for an incentive, you must have a PG&E electric account.

Multifamily Affordable Solar Housing Program (MASH)
The MASH program provides higher incentives to offset the costs of installing solar on multi-family affordable housing buildings in California such as apartment buildings. In order to qualify, PG&E must provide electric service to the building.

New Solar Housing Partnership (NSHP)
The NSHP program provides incentives for the construction of new, energy efficient homes that install solar. In order to qualify for a rebate, the home with the solar panels will have to receive electric service from PG&E. (Existing homes should apply under the CSI program.)

Single-Family Affordable Solar Housing Program (SASH)
The SASH program provides higher incentives to offset the costs of installing solar on low-income single family homes in California. GRID Alternatives is the Program Administrator. For more information on this program, please visit their website.
