How does the rebate work? Do you send in copies of your receipt to some government agency and they send you a check?

Sorry for not being clearer
the Lithium setup installed is $4250, if you don't get the solar option at that time, you must add tax to that that amount.
So $4547.
With Solar savings
Lithium set $4250 x 30% = $1275
Now add solar $789 x 30% = $236.70
total with solar $5039 after rebate + no sales tax + $3527
so grand total $3527
ADVANTAGES OF LITHIUM ION BATTERIES
- High power to weight ratio as compared to Lead acidic, Nicd, NiFe.
- Less space required for installation.
- These batteries are maintenance free.
- High cycle life between 5000-7000 cycles (For especially designed Lithium Ion storage batteries for the solar applications).
- High charging and discharging efficiency, above 95%.
- Capable to produce most of its stored energy with very high discharging rate.
- Depth of discharge is 80% for optimum cycle life.
- Capable to produce 100% of its stored energy.
- Tolerate high charging rates.
- Long service life between 10-20 years (Depends on the brand).
- Very low self discharging nature.
- never lose their charge if stored for months at a time (as in snow birds)
- Wide temperature range for discharging.
- No memory effect, no need to fully discharge before recharging as other nickel batteries require doing that.
