It’s a trial to test out the idea with the goal of eventually rolling it out nationwide in some form.
And it’s more about electrification broadly than about the more limited solar idea. So, solar panels + home battery + heat pumps (water and climate) + induction cooktops. From what I can tell, the home owners decide on which subsidies they want to take advantage of. Which is probably fine for a trial, but ideally there would be more support for those less knowledgeable as this gets expanded. Although I expect there is onboarding during the application process that would assist with this.
Yeah, its definitely something that people with the means, who also make the time to look at, could gain a great deal from. But there’ll have to be outreach and explainers sent out to activate people who aren’t in that niche.

You can see the subsidies offered on the original Electrify 2515 pilot
