City and County of Honolulu - Solar Loan Program

May 24, 2024

Summary

The City and County of Honolulu offers loans for solar equipment through their Rehabilitation Loan Program. The program offers zero-interest loans to income-eligible homeowners for the installation of solar water heating and photovoltaic systems through the City's Rehabilitation Loan Program.

The zero-interest loans are available for single-family homes and individual condominiums with home owners association approval. For loans over $10,000, a mortgage lien will be secured on the property. Additional repairs such as re-roofing work, etc. may be included in the installation work depending on the City inspection. Qualification is dependent on income level (guidelines available on program website). The program is designed to assist low- and moderate-income owner-occupant homeowners.
