WaterNow Survey 2019: Financing Consumer Rebates

Leading up to WaterNow's 2019 Tap into Resilience Summit in Austin, Texas, we asked local elected officials and water managers - "Is the ability to pay for or finance consumer rebate programs a limiting factor in your community?"

Of the 75 respondents, 59% reported that, yes, their ability to pay for rebate programs is a limiting factor in their community with 50% indicating that it is somewhat limiting and 9% noting that it is very limiting.

To learn more about how communities can finance these incentive programs and scale their investment in these localized, resilient solutions explore the Tap into Resilience Toolkit here and here.
