Are you interested in learning about the financial and environmental benefits of solar electricity and solar hot water systems for your home or business? Join Snohomish County Public Utility District in Edmonds Tuesday, Nov. 8  for a free informational session about the utility’s Solar Express program, which offers a range of incentives and educational support for customers interested in solar energy.

The meeting will begin at 6 p.m. in the PUD’s Edmonds office auditorium, 21018 Hwy. 99.

More than 100 customers have participated in the Solar Express program in the past two years. Residential customers can qualify for up to $2,500 for solar photovoltaic systems and commercial customers can qualify for up to $10,000. All customers with electric hot water systems can qualify for a $500 incentive for solar hot water systems. Residential customers may instead opt for a 2.9-percent APR loan up to $25,000 for photovoltaic panels and up to $14,000 for solar hot water systems.

Customers may also qualify for additional federal tax credits and state production incentives.
