Oncor officially launched its first photovoltaic (PV) solar power initiative, the Take A Load Off, Texas program, to encourage expansion of solar energy in Texas, create new jobs for experienced installation experts, and make solar systems more accessible. The solar PV program offers cash incentives to qualified homeowners, businesses and governments to add solar PV power systems.
