Guamanian Renewable Energy Government Incentives

In Guam, homeowners and businesses can benefit from several state and local government incentives to install solar panels and battery storage systems. The Guam Power Authority (GPA) offers a Net Metering Program, which allows solar system owners to receive credits for the excess electricity they generate and feed back into the grid.

Additionally, the The Leon Guerrero-Tenorio Administration has secured a $62.4 million award from the U.S. EPA’s Solar for All program to provide renewable energy solutions to low and moderate-income households in Guam. This initiative, led by the Guam Energy Office, aims to reduce electricity bills through energy efficiency audits, weatherization support, and an advantageous loan program. The program will also allow households to access solar, enhancing local infrastructure and promoting sustainability.

The Mariana Islands, including Saipan, Tinian, and Rota, also offer various incentives to encourage the use of solar energy and battery storage systems. The Commonwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC) has implemented a Net Metering Program similar to Guam’s, allowing solar system owners to earn credits for excess energy produced. Eligibility requirements for these incentives vary depending on the specific program and location. In general, homeowners and businesses must be customers of the local utility company, such as GPA or CUC, to qualify for net metering programs. For grants and rebates, applicants typically need to demonstrate that their solar projects meet certain technical and performance standards. Additionally, some programs may prioritize low-income households or businesses in disadvantaged communities to ensure equitable access to renewable energy benefits. It’s essential for applicants to review the specific eligibility criteria and application processes for each incentive program to maximize their chances of approval.

Ideal Locations for Solar & Batteries Projects in Marianas Islands

In the Mariana Islands, several cities and regions have become popular for installing solar panels and battery storage systems due to their unique characteristics and the incentives available. Saipan, the largest island in the Northern Mariana Islands, is a prime location for solar installations. The island’s high electricity costs and abundant sunshine make solar energy an attractive option for both residential and commercial properties. Additionally, the Commonwealth Utilities Corporation (CUC) offers net metering programs that allow solar system owners to receive credits for excess energy produced, further incentivizing solar adoption.

  • Garapan, a district in Saipan, stands out due to its commercial and tourism activities. Businesses in this area such as the Joeten Hafa Adai Shopping Center on Beach Road are increasingly turning to solar energy to reduce operational costs and promote sustainability.

  • Tinian, another island in the Northern Marianas, has also seen a rise in solar installations. The island’s smaller population and limited infrastructure make it an ideal candidate for renewable energy solutions. Solar panels and battery storage systems help reduce reliance on imported fuels and improve energy security.

  • Rota, the third-largest island in the Northern Marianas, is well suited for solar energy installations due to its remote location and high energy costs. The island’s reliance on diesel generators for electricity makes solar power a valuable resource and for energy security.

Lastly, Guam is a significant player in the region’s solar energy landscape. As a U.S. territory, Guam benefits from federal incentives and grants for renewable energy projects. The Guam Power Authority (GPA) offers a robust net metering program, and the Guam Energy Office provides additional grants and rebates for solar installations. The island’s high electricity rates and strong government support make it a popular choice for solar energy adoption.
