Systems less than 30 kilowatts (kW) will receive their full incentive upfront. Systems with a capacity of 30 kW or greater will receive half the incentive upfront, and the the other half will be paid over the following five years based on the actual performance. The following technologies will receive the corresponding upfront incentive (or half of this figure if the system is 30 kW or larger): Renewable and Waste Heat Capture: *Wind turbines - $1.25/W *Bottoming Cycle CHP - $1.25/W *Pressure Reduction Turbine - $1.25/W Conventional CHP: *Internal Combustion Engine (CHP) - $0.50/W *Microturbine (CHP) - $0.50/W *Gas Turbine (CHP) - $0.50/W Emerging Technologies *Advanced Energy Storage - $2.00/W *Biogas - $2.00/W *Fuel Cell - CHP or Electric Only - $2.25/W |

| Additional Information |
There is no minimum or maximum eligible system size, although the incentive payment is capped at 3 megawatt (MW). Further, the first MW in capacity will receive 100 percent of the calculated incentive, the second MW will receive 50 percent of the calculated incentive, and the third MW will receive 25 percent of the calculated amount. Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), Southern California Edison (SCE), and Southern California Gas Company (SoCal Gas) administer the SGIP program in their service territories, and the San Diego Regional Energy Office administers the program in SDG&E's territory. Customers of PG&E, SDG&E, SCE and SoCal Gas should contact their program administrator for an application, program handbook and additional eligibility information. |
