Step 1 of 4

Drag to your typical BC Hydro bill. Bigger bills usually mean bigger savings.
Step 3 of 4
Do you want battery backup?
In BC, a battery unlocks up to $5,000 more in rebates (with Peak Saver), protects your ROI under RS 2289, and keeps your home running in an outage.
Your estimate
You may qualify for
in BC Hydro rebates — estimated system: 6 kW, offsetting ~85% of your bill.
Estimate the BC Hydro rebates you may qualify for, the system size that fits your bill, and roughly how much of your power you could offset — in four quick steps.
Every output is a transparent estimate, based on published BC Hydro rebate math ($1,000/kW for solar to a cap, $500/kWh for battery to a cap with Peak Saver). Real figures come from a site‑specific 3D CAD design.
How the estimate is calculated
- Solar rebate: $1,000 per kW installed, up to $5,000 residential (up to $10,000 for eligible businesses), capped at 50% of cost
- Battery rebate: $500 per kWh, up to $5,000 residential with Peak Saver enrollment
- Production assumption: roughly 1,000 kWh per kW per year in Metro Vancouver (deliberately conservative)
- Offset assumption: ~90% with a battery, ~80% solar‑only, reflecting self‑consumption under RS 2289
