Cupertino residents can now register for a program that makes it easier and more affordable to install solar systems in your home or to purchase an electric vehicle.

The city of Cupertino is a partner of the SunShares Program, which offers a 15-percent discount on solar installation, access to pre-vetted solar providers and a 30-percent federal tax credit.

To view the discounts, go here. The program also offers free, third party technical advice that helps inform customer decision-making.

The 2018 Bay Area SunShares program is being administered by the San Francisco Business Council on Climate Change on behalf of a group of cities, counties, major employers and membership organizations.
