Property Assessed Clean Energy Program
Introducing a better, faster way to pay for your energy upgrade projects
What is the  PACE Program?

The Los Angeles County Residential Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Program enables homeowners to install energy efficiency, renewable energy and water-saving improvements to their properties without putting any money down!

PACE is a unique financing tool that allows LA County to issue a bond to a lender, which secures funding for the installation of energy projects that are permanently fixed to the property. Homeowners then repay financing annually through an assessment on their property tax bill. PACE financing enhances home values, lowers homeowners’ energy bills, reduces greenhouse gas emissions and creates green jobs.

An advantage to this method of financing is that when the property is sold (in most cases), the assessment as well as the associated energy improvements and their utility savings stay with the house and transfer to the new property owner who gets the benefit of those energy improvements.
