Getting solar in Philadelphia just got a little bit easier. The city announced today that solar projects will be allowed to use a new EZ permit for qualifying installations up to 10 kilowatts in capacity. Combined with a rollout of online permitting, it should be an easier, faster, and more affordable option.
Solarize Philly is offering an additional “EZ Permit Discount” of $250 to participants who sign a contract before November 30th. The Pennsylvania Energy Authority (PEA) encourages interested residents to sign up on Solarize Philly’s website, and candidates will be referred to Solar States for a free solar assessment. Households that qualify based on income will be invited to participate in the Solar Savings Progam, which pairs grants and financing for low-to-moderate-income households.
