Key details

No bidding. The program may provide two financial incentives for participating customers: an upfront incentive (for CARE/FERA & Communities of Concern customers) to minimize the initial cost of the battery system, and a performance incentive for a daily dispatch of the battery to maximize benefits for the customer and the grid. The performance incentive is based on the percentage of battery capacity that a participant dispatches to their home and/or to the grid during a preset window that aligns with the on-peak periods

Customers will be eligible for Performance Battery Storage Incentive ($0.10/kWh) for peak events. Events will be 2-hours.

At the end of the calendar year, SDCP will perform the quarterly incentive calculations and then process the cumulative calendar year incentive earnings to be paid directly to the participant based on the address on the application. That process will continue for 10 years post-initial enrollment in the Program unless the participant chooses to unenroll
