Program status
Intake evidence: live "Get started today!" and free energy walk-through sign-up, plus the non-electric stream's own wording, "Available until funds are depleted" on a "first come, first serve basis". The $1 million non-electric pot can empty mid-year with no notice, so confirm availability before scoping. A program guide v6.1 dated August 2022 is still linked from the site and its figures conflict with the live /incentives/ page; the amounts above come from the live page, and the PDF is out of date. Amounts are per fiscal year and per entity.
