• Customers must:
• Be a current PSE account holder and electric customer taking service under one of the Schedules for Electric Service numbered 7 through 49.
• The Solar PV System nameplate capacity may not exceed 1,000 kW AC.
• Complete a Schedule 152 generator interconnection: application, agreement, and secure permission to operate their solar PV system under the terms and conditions of Schedule 152.
• Have an AMI meter (cannot have a MV90 meter or participate in Schedule 171).
• Customers cannot:
• Participate in Net Metering (Schedule 150) or Multi-Occupant Solar (Schedule 686).
• Participate in electric demand response programs and services.

• The program is voluntary and enrollment is simple.
• Select an experienced contractor. We recommend you use PSE's Recommended Energy Professionals (REPs) list where you can find a dependable and qualified solar contractor. The contractor will help you determine if your property is ideal for solar. We recommend you get multiple bids on your project and check their references.
• Interconnect with PSE. Once you’ve selected an installer, they'll help lead you through the process of interconnecting your solar installation to the PSE power grid. The interconnection process, from initial application submittal to final approval to operation, can take 6 to 24 months to complete, depending on project complexity. In certain scenarios, the study and approval process may take less time.
• Find out more about the interconnection process here.
• Sign up. During the interconnection process you will be asked if you want to participate in the Solar Energy Credit program. You can also contact PSE to help you sign up.
• Benefit. After signup you will see credits of $0.067130 per kWh for energy returned to PSE on your monthly PSE bill.

• Demonstrate your commitment to sustainability. Help meet carbon reduction goals and replace a portion of conventional electricity in PSE’s power supply with clean energy from a solar array.
• Compensation. Get paid to generate energy and send it back to the grid.
• Pricing. Reduce energy needs from PSE and reduce exposure to rate fluctuations.
• Investment. Solar increases property values and there are outstanding opportunities to benefit from federal and state incentives.
• Brand and Marketing. Solar can attract customers and improve customer perception.

There are limited incentives available up to 100% or $250,000 per approved project to reduce the upfront cost of installing a solar system. Up to $50,000 of the funding can be used toward associated interconnection costs.

Applications for these incentives are reviewed each month and are prioritized by how much of the financial savings from the solar project the applicant passes historically marginalized community members.

Current and past recipients of Solar Grants or incentives may apply.

To be eligible for Enhanced Incentives, you must:

• Be a community-based organization, government agency or Tribal entity serving historically marginalized communities.
• Have a project located in PSE’s electric service area.
• Own the project site or lease it with a minimum of 5 years remaining.
• Enroll in Solar Energy Credit. For more details of this service see, Schedule 667.
• Receive permission to operate by completing a Schedule 152 interconnection.
• When requested, sign a Solar Energy Credit agreement with PSE.
• Plan to complete installation no later than 12 months after the agreement is signed.
• Have an average of 75% Total Solar Resource Fraction (TSRF) of all points in the proposed solar array.
