What to check before buying
- Confirm the name of the electric delivery utility on the bill, not just the ZIP code or retail energy supplier.
- Check eligible hardware and whether wiring, contractor labor, permitting or electrical panel upgrades are covered.
- Confirm any preapproval requirement, income criteria, contractor-network restriction, funding window and stacking policy.
- Ask the utility for a dated written eligibility determination whenever possible.
