Are you building a new home in 2010? Are you interested in installing a solar hot water system on a new house next year? The City of Vancouver is initiating a pilot program early 2010. We will provide approximately 50% of the value of a solar hot water system (up to $6000 system value) in incentive funding to support local uptake of this renewable technology. Program participants will see their solar homes featured on our Green Buildings website.
Would you consider participating in this program? If so, how many houses/solar installations would you expect to begin in 2010?
We appreciate any comments or feedback.
