Solar rebates in the Northwest Territories
The first tip comes from the program’s own steps. Each program’s rules come first.
- How Renewable Energy Rebates program works in N.W.T.
- Contact AEA (867-920-3333) to discuss your project before applying. Submit the online application with a recent power bill, component details and up to three quotes.
- Read the metering rules
- Some rebates exclude net metering or require load-displacement systems. Check this before you sign, because it changes how the system is designed.
- Check the roof first
- If your roof needs replacing within ten years, do it before the panels go on.
