How to get started

Alert:

In line with the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP) Final Determination of the 2022 – 2024 Plan, the Sponsors of Energize ConnecticutSM are discontinuing rebates and incentives for natural gas equipment as of December 31, 2024. Customers currently working with contractors to replace their natural gas equipment have until December 31, 2024 to complete the installation of measures to be eligible for applicable rebates. All natural gas equipment sales must take place on or before December 31, 2024 to be eligible for point of sale (midstream) incentives. 

Check Eligibility

  • Customers of Eversource, Connecticut Natural Gas, Southern Connecticut Natural Gas and United Illuminating with multifamily buildings or complexes of five or more units in Connecticut may be eligible for the Multifamily Initiative 
  • Equipment must be installed in the service territory of the participating utility
     

Note: Natural gas incentives will continue for individual combustion equipment in Multifamily buildings

Technical Details

  • Tankless gas water heaters must be ENERGY STAR® certified and have a Uniform Energy Factor of 0.92 or higher
     

 Tip: Heat pump water heaters provide enhanced energy efficiency and lower operating costs compared to tankless gas water heaters, while also supporting more sustainable energy practices.

    Once your application is approved, a pre-inspection of proposed upgrades may be conducted. Afterward, the utility will issue a Letter of Agreement, which serves as a formal commitment to the incentives.

    After the energy efficiency upgrades are installed, a post-inspection will be performed. Upon successful completion, the incentive payment will be issued for qualifying upgrades.
