ComEd accepting applications for business solar rebates

CHICAGO - ComEd announced today that commercial and industrial customers can begin submitting applications for rebates of $250 per kilowatt of installed solar energy as approved last month by the Illinois Commerce Commission.

The rebate will reduce upfront installation costs and spur renewable energy development, and it is available to ComEd business customers who adopted solar after June 1, 2017. The rebate program rewards commercial and industrial customers for generating clean energy much like ComEd's residential net metering customers already receive credits on their bill when they produce more energy than they use with a private solar energy system installed at their home.

Rebate amounts will be based on the capacity of a company's solar project. Eligible customers can learn more about the new ComEd rebate program requirements and apply for a rebate at www.comed.com/DGrebate.
