🔋 What Is SGIP?

What It Is

The Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) is a California state program that gives rebates for installing Solar + battery storage systems (like Tesla Powerwall or other home batteries). It was created by the CPUC (California Public Utilities Commission) to help residents and businesses lower energy costs and strengthen grid reliability.
