  • Can support battery systems that store solar power or grid power for outage backup.

Plan the Upgrade Before You File

Rebate applications are easier when the project scope is clear. We review your existing panel, EV charging goals, solar or battery plans, and utility requirements so the application matches the actual work needed at the property.

For Charge Ready Home, that often means confirming whether a panel upgrade is needed for Level 2 charging. For SGIP, it means matching the battery system, backup loads, and eligibility path before documents are submitted.

Confirm Funding Before Work Begins

Most incentive programs require approval, reservations, or documentation before reimbursement. Do not assume a completed project will qualify retroactively without checking the current program rules first.

We can help you build the technical scope, but final eligibility and rebate approval come from the utility, program administrator, or statewide portal.
