BC Hydro Solar Panel Rebates

Get your Sunshine at a Steal.

Rebates, rebates, rebates.

Save Up to $25,000

Solar panels are one of the fastest ways to cut down on your on-grid energy consumption and reduce your reliance on traditional power sources and the price uncertainty that comes with them.

BC Hydro offers $1 per watt of installed direct current (DC) solar panels for up to:

  • $5,000 off Single Family Homes
  • $25,000 off Multi-Unit Residential Buildings
  • $25,000 off Commercial Buildings

The rebate can pay for up to 50% of the total combined cost of labour and materials for your solar panel install, and you have the option to cover the remainder with the Canada Greener Homes Interest-Free Loan.
