Appendix A: Green Energy Fund Grant Program
The Green Energy Program was created by the Delaware Legislature as a fund to promote installation of renewable energy systems in Delaware, including photovoltaic systems. Delaware’s Green Energy Program provides cash incentives available as rebate grants for the installation of photovoltaic systems.
In order to participate in the Green Energy Fund program, the system must be installed in Delaware and the electricity provider must offer a program. Participating electricity providers are:
- Delmarva Power
- Delaware Electric Cooperative
- Municipal Providers:
Clayton Newark Dover New Castle Lewes Seaford Middletown Smyrna Milford
The Delaware Energy Office website, provides detailed information and frequently asked questions for each of the programs. The site also provides a list of Green Energy Program participating contractors. This information can also be obtained by calling the Energy Office at 302-735-3480. If a contractor you have selected is not listed, please use the contractor application link to obtain an application for your contractor. Please note that professionally installed systems must be installed by a participating contractor or a contractor who is capable of becoming approved for the Green Energy Program.
All qualifying systems must have a warranty for protection of the integrity and performance of the components for at least five years. The installation contractor provides the warranty. The installation contractor should include the warranty documents with the system’s operating and owner’s manuals.
