    Beware of applying for finance if total cost is under $10k

    Forgot to mention that in IL we get upfront credit for generating solar for 15 years. Energy Credits bring the cost of 8.9 kW system down to sub 10k. Also we have net metering so having powerwalls doesn’t make too much sense unless for total outage.

    Beware of applying for finance if total cost is under $10k

    Just got a call saying the loan amount is too small. $8600 vs minimum 10k. I asked them why even pull the credit and approved me for a loan if the they knew the loan amount is less than 10k. I changed the option to cash for now and will look for financing somewhere else.

    Post Your Tesla Solar Layout

    I was told it would be 110% of previous 12 months usage. ComEd in Illinois does provide net metering with 1:1. Plus I’m on hourly rate, maybe the utility company doesn’t want to send out checks each month for over production. I did ask Tesla if there are any forms to fill out to request...

    Tesla Solar/ IL/ Rebates and quote new thread request

    Yikes! Reading all the old thread it seemed like a good choice, thanks for providing the updated information. Tesla gives you this credit upfront but any SRECs after 15 years belongs to them. I'm guessing the SRECs would not be worth a lot in 15 years but Tesla having that clause in there...

    Just ordered 8/23 in Illinois

    Are you getting the IL Adjustable Block Program credit? I believe the are all out of money for install >10 kW. I first over sized my request by using summer time electric bill but it was adjusted due to ComEd restriction of only allowing 110% of last year usage. It was knocked down to 8.84 kW.

    Renewable Energy Credit Agreement - Lifetime clause

    I did contact Tesla and they are certain that it's either all or nothing. They would be happy to remove the IL ABP credit and let me sell those on my own using a approved vendor but I see that it's hard to find someone that is not the installer to take on these type of transactions. SECTrade...

    Renewable Energy Credit Agreement - Lifetime clause

    How are people okay with allowing Tesla claim the credits (REC) generated by the system for the lifetime of the install? In some states these credits are worth a lot right now with an understanding that in the future that the value will decrease. For people in IL, the state provides a upfront...

    Tesla's IL Adjustable Block Buyout Alternative

    I'm in the same boat, I saw the terms and conditions and it says they get the REC for lifetime of the system (while ABP is for 15 year block). I've been searching online for the past 2-3 days but don't see much about this. Good timing on your post, hopefully we can find the answer together.

    Tesla Solar/ IL/ Rebates and quote new thread request

    I wanted to bring up this old thread to ask a question. The Tesla agreement says "for life of the system" for the REC credit section of the agreement. IL Adjustable Block Program is 15 years pre-payment of the SREC credits. Does this mean after 15 years Tesla keeps any SREC produced? I'm...
