Thoughts on Solar by Run on Sun's Founder & CEO, Jim Jenal

Every quarter we update our published information about solar power rebates in our service area. Much to our dismay, we came across the news that Glendale Water and Power has apparently suspended their solar rebate program until July 1, 2011! We have scoured the GWP website for additional information but found none.  However, placing a call to the solar coordinator’s office provided this additional information:

Unfortunately we are unable to offer you the solar rebate at this time due to program incentive limitations. Solar Solutions applications received before July 27, 2010 will be processed - all applications received after this date will be added to our waiting list. Incentives will be available July 1, 2011. Please be aware that 2011 funding will also be limited.

We do not know what has caused the change, but we will report back when we have learned more. We would welcome comments from anyone at GWP who would care to clarify the situation.
