Looks good!

You mentioned one of the incentives runs out in the middle of the year. Is that the ODOE rebate? I noticed it says all the money has been allocated as of 15-April. How does the process work? Does your contractor reserve a block of that money in advance or do you have to hope your system gets installed before the money runs out.

I see ODOE is $0.50 per watt with a maximum of 40% or $5,000. Is that 40% of the total installed cost or just the panels?

Energy Trust is $0.30 per watt with a max of $2,400. Any percentage on that one?

I see the Federal Credit is $26% of the cost with no max but expires at the end of 2021.

I might need to look at solar again.
