The Maryland Energy Administration (MEA)<\/a> FY 20 Clean Energy Rebate Program, formerly the Clean Energy Grant Program is now open and accepting applications.\u00a0 This rebate program serves both the residential<\/a> and a commercial<\/a> markets.\u00a0 A total of $2,600,000 dollars is available for residential applications and $200,000 dollars has allotted for commercial applications.<\/p>\n

Please note, incentive rates in the FY 20 commercial program have changed significantly.\u00a0 The incentives increase smoothly as the size of the project increases.\u00a0 The monetary caps have increased significantly, and in the case of solar photovoltaic systems, the maximum array size has increased from 200 kW to 250 kW.\u00a0 Commercial applicants now have a choice of a two step or a one step process.\u00a0 Under a two step process the applicant provides an application before the project is constructed.\u00a0 If approved, MEA will ensure the project funding remains available over the term of the commitment letter (normally 6 months).\u00a0 Once the project is completed the applicant submits a completion certification and receives the rebate.\u00a0 Under the one step process, the applicant completes the project and then submits a completion certificate.\u00a0 If the project is approved and money remains available from funding approved for the fiscal year, MEA will pay the rebate.<\/p><\/div>\n
