Application Requirements

The SGIP 2013 Program Year is now open! Please refer to the 2013 Program Handbook and use the new forms when submitting your application. Program forms from previous years will not be accepted.

For all residential projects and small (<10kW) nonresidential projects, a two-step application process is available. Large (≥10kW) nonresidential projects usually follow a three-step application process but may chose a two-step application process if they are able to meet all two-step requirements.

SGIP funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis throughout the calendar year (January 1 - December 31). Reservations received after total funds have been committed for a calendar year will be placed on a wait list. A place on the wait list is not secured until the Program Administrator receives all information and documentation required with the Reservation Request Form and the project is determined to meet all eligibility requirements.
