When you install a PV system, it can either be tied to the APS power grid (“grid tied”) or installed as a standalone system (“off-grid”). With a grid tied system, you can still draw electricity from the APS grid when your PV system is not producing enough energy to meet your needs. Off-grid systems may make more sense in more remote locations.

APS rebate on a 4kW system was $12,000.
Then it dropped to $8,600.
Now it is $7,800.
Don't wait till there are no more rebates.

Homeowners can claim a 25% tax credit (maximum of $1,000 credit) on solar devices installed on a residence. This is a one time tax credit and restricts the homeowner for additional credits for solar purchases made for the same residence in subsequent years.

Commercial benefits are available also, to include grants from the Federal Government.
