[Solar PV: Oregon Revives Solar + Storage Rebate Program]

Published: May 7, 2026 09:32
The Oregon Department of Energy will reopen its rebate program on June 15 with $1.1 million in remaining funds. Homeowners can receive up to $5,000 for solar and $2,500 for storage, while low-income service organizations are eligible for up to $30,000 and $15,000 respectively. The program, paused since 2024, now also supports storage-only additions to existing systems through approved contractors to reduce upfront costs.

According to SMM research, freight rates for PV products shipped to Europe have increased significantly recently, with quotes on some routes rising by around USD 2,000-3,000 per high-cube container from previous levels. Meanwhile, congestion has emerged at Rotterdam and some ports in Portugal, leading to vessel schedule delays and lower container pickup efficiency. This is expected to cause certain disruptions to European module delivery schedules and temporarily push up module landed costs. SMM will continue to monitor the subsequent impact.
