### Rebate Process Overview

##### Enrollment:

Customers must sign a Customer-Implementer Agreement and Trade Pros must sign the Willdan-provided Trade Pro Agreement.

##### Reserve Rebate:

Contractor provides Willdan with the required pre-installation project information to confirm customer’s eligibility and rebate amount. Willdan will notify you once your rebate is reserved.

##### Installation:

Customer hires Contractor or may request a referral to a "Trade Pro" from Willdan.

##### Post Installation Documents:

Contractor provides Willdan with required post-installation information, documents, and photos for submission to SCE.

##### Rebate Check Issued:

Once SCE reviews and approves the project, Willdan issues the rebate check.

## Rebate Submission Guide

There is a Rebate Submission Guide (RSG) for each measure available on the website or by request from Willdan. The RSG is intended to summarize the documents, photos, and installation requirements to obtain a rebate. The RSG may be updated at any time to reflect new or modified program requirements.
