Yes, there are states that offer both upfront rebates and performance-based incentives for energy storage. Here are a few examples:
- California: The California Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) offers a combination of upfront rebates and performance-based payments for businesses installing battery storage. The program includes a 50% upfront rebate combined with a 50% performance-based payment, with higher incentives available for companies in areas prone to power outages and wildfires.
- Connecticut: The Energy Storage Solutions program in Connecticut provides both upfront rebates and ongoing performance-based incentives. Residential customers can receive up to $16,000 in upfront rebates, while businesses receive a 50% upfront incentive when connected to the grid, with additional performance-based incentives available.
These programs demonstrate how states are using dual incentives to encourage the adoption of energy storage systems.
