Last DSIRE Review: 01/08/2010

Program Overview:

State:	Missouri
Incentive Type:	Utility Rebate Program
Eligible Renewable/Other Technologies:	Photovoltaics
Applicable Sectors:	Commercial, Industrial, Residential, Nonprofit, Schools, Local Government, State Government, Fed. Government, Agricultural, Institutional
Amount:	$2.00/W DC
Maximum Incentive:	$50,000
Eligible System Size:	Maximum capacity of 100 kW (the limit for net metering in Missouri)
Equipment Requirements:	Equipment must be new; modules and inverters must have a minimum warranty of 10 years; lockable external disconnect switch required
Installation Requirements:	System must be grid tied, net metered, and permanently installed on the customer's property
Ownership of Renewable Energy Credits:	Customer-generator
Web Site:	http://www.ameren.com/sites/aue/source/Renewable/Pages/ADC_Ameren...

Summary:

AmerenUE offers rebates to its customers for the installation of net metered photovoltaic (PV) systems on their properties. The rebate is set at $2.00 per DC watt with a maximum rebate of $50,000. Although the program guidelines and application do not list a firm maximum system capacity, the requirement that the system be net metered implicitly limits system size to 100 kilowatts (kW), the maximum size allowed under Missouri's net metering rules. Only systems that become operational after the opening date of the program (January 1, 2010) are eligible for incentives. In order to qualify for incentives, a customer must have an electric account in good standing with the utility. Eligible systems must use new equipment; be permanently installed on the customer's property; and have module and inverter manufacturer's warranties of at least 10 years. Installations must comply with all applicable federal, state and local codes and standards, including the state of Missouri's Interconnection Standards. Rebate recipients must certify that the system will remain in operation on their property for its useful life (deemed to be a minimum of 10 years). Notably, the customer retains ownership of all solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs) generated by the system. This program arises from 2008 Proposition C, a ballot initiative that established a state renewable portfolio standard in Missouri and required the state's investor-owned utilities to offer solar rebates of at least $2.00 per watt beginning in 2010. Please see the program web site and look under the heading of "Missouri's Proposition C" for further details and program applications.

Weatherization Assistance Program

Weatherization Assistance Program Announces Request for Information on Proposed Sustainable Energy Resources for Consumers Grants


March 09, 2010

The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Weatherization and Intergovernmental Program today announced a Request for Information (RFI) regarding the Department’s proposed Sustainable Energy Resources for Consumers (SERC) Grants for up to $109 million.

Under the Recovery Act, states and local service providers are accelerating the pace of weatherization to create jobs and increase the number of families who can benefit from the energy and cost savings available through the Weatherization Assistance Program. The Weatherization Assistance Program works in partnership with states and more than 900 local service providers to weatherize homes of eligible low-income families.

The purpose of the proposed SERC grants are to speed delivery of weatherization assistance services, promote increased leveraging of federal funding with other funding sources, and identify and develop sustainable energy funding models that are not currently deployed by the Weatherization Assistance Program network.

The Department seeks comments from potential applicants, which include state weatherization agencies and local services providers, and also from other stakeholders.
