PA SOLAR REBATE NEWS
"PENNSYLVANIA SUNSHINE" ROLLS OUT WITH GREAT FANFARE
Eos Energy is proud to report that in the first week of the "Pennsylvania Sunshine" solar rebate program, 9% of all statewide rebate applications were Eos projects. Now, thanks to the combination of a Federal Tax Credit and state rebate, you can now get a solar system for less than half the regular cost. PA Sunshine rebates are on a first-come, first-served basis, so if you are property owner in Pennsylvania and would like to find out if your property meets the rebate eligibility guidelines while funds last, contact Sherry Riesner at sherry@eosss.com.

Read on for great events coming up next week in Philadelphia, produced by the national Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA), and our regional chapter, the Mid-Atlantic Solar Energy Industries Association (MSEIA), of which Eos Energy is a proud and active member.
