Duke Energy Solar Rebate Programs for South Carolina Residents

What South Carolina Homeowners Need to Know About Duke Energy Solar Rebates

If you’re a South Carolina resident considering solar power, Duke Energy’s rebate programs could significantly reduce your installation costs. These incentives, combined with federal tax credits, make going solar more affordable than ever. As Western North Carolina and Upstate South Carolina’s solar leader since 1995, Sundance Power Systems has helped countless homeowners navigate these programs successfully. We’ve put together this comprehensive guide to help you understand what’s available, who qualifies, and how to secure these valuable rebates for your solar project.

Current Duke Energy Solar Rebate Programs in South Carolina

Duke Energy offers rebate programs designed specifically for South Carolina residents to encourage the adoption of solar energy. These programs can substantially offset your initial investment in a solar power system.

Residential Solar Rebate Program Overview

The Duke Energy solar rebate program for South Carolina homeowners provides a direct financial incentive based on the size of your installed system. Currently, residential customers can receive a rebate calculated per watt of installed capacity. This program was established as part of Duke Energy’s commitment to expanding renewable energy options across their service territory.

Unlike some temporary incentives, Duke Energy has maintained consistent support for solar adoption, though rebate amounts may change periodically. What makes these rebates particularly valuable is that they’re provided in addition to the federal solar investment tax credit, potentially reducing your overall system cost by a significant percentage.

Eligibility Requirements for SC Residents

To qualify for Duke Energy’s solar rebates in South Carolina, you need to meet several criteria. First, you must be a Duke Energy customer with an account in good standing. Your property must be located within Duke Energy’s South Carolina service area, which includes Greenville, Spartanburg, and Anderson counties—areas where Sundance Power Systems actively serves customers.

Your solar installation must be completed by a licensed contractor like Sundance Power Systems, which holds all the necessary credentials including South Carolina Unlimited GC #G115974. Additionally, your system must be properly interconnected to the Duke Energy grid following their specifications and requirements.

The Application Process: Step by Step

Securing your Duke Energy solar rebate requires following a specific process. As your partner in solar, Sundance Power Systems handles much of this process for our customers.

Before Installation

The process begins before your solar panels are installed. You’ll need to submit an interconnection application to Duke Energy, which includes technical specifications of your proposed system. This step reserves your place in the rebate program. With our 30 years of experience, Sundance ensures all documentation is correctly prepared and submitted, maximizing your chances of rebate approval.

During and After Installation

Once your system is installed by our NABCEP-certified team, Duke Energy will need to inspect and approve the installation before the system can be activated. After passing inspection, we’ll submit final documentation to complete your rebate application. Duke Energy typically processes approved rebates within a specified timeframe after final documentation is received.

Maximizing Your Solar Investment in South Carolina

Smart homeowners combine Duke Energy rebates with other available incentives to maximize their savings. The federal solar investment tax credit currently allows you to deduct a significant percentage of your solar costs from your federal taxes. When paired with Duke Energy’s rebate program, these incentives can substantially reduce your overall investment.

As a woman-owned small business committed to sustainability since 1995, Sundance Power Systems has pioneered renewable energy solutions in the region. Our systematic 5-step design process ensures your solar system is optimized for maximum rebate eligibility while meeting your energy needs and budget.
