See if you qualify
Solar & battery storage
$5,000 up to

Solar PV rebate

$1,000 per kW of installed solar, to a maximum of $5,000 (or 50% of installed cost). Every ToSolar solar system, using tier-1 Longi and JA Solar panels, is designed to qualify.

$1,500 up to

Battery storage rebate

$500 per kWh, up to $1,500, for batteries on BC Hydro’s qualified product list, including the Sigenergy SigenStor we install.

A note on Tesla & BC Hydro rebates. Tesla products, including Powerwall and the Tesla Wall Connector, are not eligible for any BC Hydro rebate. Tesla is still an excellent choice for whole-home backup and charging; but if a rebate is your priority, a qualified battery like the Sigenergy SigenStor is the way to go. We’ll lay out both paths, with numbers, in your quote.
EV charger rebates · Single-family homes
$350 up to

Level 2 charger

50% of the purchase and installation cost of an eligible Level 2 charger, to a maximum of $350, with rebate-eligible chargers like ChargePoint and Emporia. (Tesla Wall Connector is not eligible.)

+$200

Power management device

An extra $200 for single-family homes that add an EV power management device, often letting you install a charger without upgrading your electrical panel.
