How much rebate you get
BC Hydro and CleanBC programs offer $5,000 for solar in Penticton. The exact amount depends on your income and the scope of your project.
Who qualifies
- You own your home in Penticton
- Your current system matches the upgrade type (e.g., gas furnace for a heat pump upgrade)
- Your HPCN-certified installer files the rebate claim
- Income-qualified households see higher rebates
How to claim it
Solar and battery rebates don't require a home energy audit like insulation or heat pumps do — the money is applied at installation instead.
- Choose an HPCN-registered CleanBC contractor in Penticton — required for eligibility since June 1, 2026
- Your system needs to be reviewed and approved to connect to the grid through BC Hydro's self-generation service before the rebate is paid
- The contractor applies the rebate directly, reducing your upfront cost rather than reimbursing you later
- Once your interconnection is approved, the rebate is processed in 30–45 business days
