Not so Xcel-ent for rebates

Boulder’s local utility provider Xcel Energy is altering its rebate system to significantly decrease the financial incentives it offers solar panel owners.
Xcel said Wednesday that, effective immediately, the combined incentive for new solar installations would decrease from $2.35 to $2.01 per watt.
