New Jersey’s Renewable Energy Manufacturing Incentive (REMI) program provides rebates to New Jersey residents, businesses, local governments, and non-profit organizations that purchase and install solar panels, inverters, and racking systems manufactured in New Jersey.

For Customers
Available for up to 500 kW of a solar project, rebates for panels start at $0.25 per watt and rebates for racking systems and inverters start at $0.15 per watt.

To be eligible for an incentive, applicants must begin by applying to either the Renewable Energy Incentive Program (REIP) or the SREC Registration Program (SRP).  REIP and SRP registration and enrollment applications both include collection of REMI eligibility information.  There are no stand-alone REMI application forms.  REMI is not available to owners of completed project or projects that have already been approved and accepted into the program.

For Manufacturers
To become a certified New Jersey manufacturer under this program, companies must supply products manufactured with at least 50 percent of the product cost – including the labor, overhead, components, and raw materials – from facilities located in New Jersey.  Products must also comply with applicable Underwriters Laboratory standards and be commercially available to the public.  A yearly manufacturing audit will be performed to ensure continued manufacturing compliance.  Learn more about eligibility requirements.

Organizations awarded a grant under the New Jersey's Economic Development Authority's (EDA) Clean Energy Manufacturing Fund (CEMF) are automatically certified as a New Jersey manufacturer.
