Efficiency Nova Scotia offers incentives to make solar electricity more affordable than ever. The Solar Homes
program helps Nova Scotians harness the sun’s energy by offering a rebate on approved solar PV systems.
The rebate is $0.30 per Watt for eligible solar PV systems up to $3,000.
Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs are a great way to finance energy efficiency upgrades and cleaner energy solutions for your home.
If your solar system produces more energy than you use at any one time, the un-used electricity will flow onto the local grid for others to use. If you generate more electricity than you can use, these surplus kilowatt-hours (kWh) will be “banked” and applied to your next bill to offset any electricity drawn from the grid.
If any surplus kilowatt-hours remain on the account at the end of a 12-month cycle, you will be paid for that energy at the same rate you pay for electricity from the grid.
