Savings Finder

Find every rebate and incentive you qualify for

The incentives for EV chargers, batteries, panel upgrades, and solar are still worth real money, but they're scattered across state, utility, and municipal programs, each with its own rules. The Savings Finder pulls them together so you can see, in one place, what applies to your address and your project.

Instead of hunting through utility websites and state energy-office pages, you get a clear picture of your potential savings before you commit to anything, every layer combined into one number for your exact address, refreshed as programs change, with the filing windows and eligibility fine print already decoded into plain instructions before you commit a single dollar to the project, the sweep is free, fast, and binding on nothing.

Incentives we check for you

• IRA Home Energy Rebates toward a panel upgrade, income-qualified and state-run
• State rebates and storage incentives (like California's SGIP)
• Utility rebates for chargers, batteries, and electrification
• Virtual Power Plant programs that pay you for shared energy
• Manufacturer and installer promotions that stack with public programs

Why incentives are worth checking first

Stacking incentives can cover a meaningful share of a project's cost. A state storage rebate like California's SGIP runs to thousands of dollars on a Powerwall, and utility rebates add hundreds more on an EV charger. Missing them means leaving real money on the table.

Because programs change and many depend on your exact location or census tract, the only reliable way to know your savings is to check your specific situation, which is exactly what this tool does.

From savings estimate to install

Once you see what you qualify for, the next step is a free in-home estimate, where your electrician confirms the eligible incentives, runs the numbers, and helps you claim them correctly. Explore the rebates hub for program details, and use our calculators to estimate your project cost and savings.

Why address-level checking beats every list

Incentive articles age badly: programs open, exhaust their budgets, change tiers, and reopen with new rules, sometimes within a single quarter. A static list that was accurate in January misleads by June. Address-level checking sidesteps the decay entirely, because it reads what's live for your utility, your state, and your census tract at the moment you ask.

The service-territory detail matters more than most homeowners expect: rebate amounts turn entirely on which utility serves the meter, and two houses a mile apart can sit with different providers and different payouts. No national article can carry that resolution, which is precisely the gap this tool exists to close.

The stack, illustrated

A concrete composite: a homeowner planning a Level 2 charger and a Powerwall checks their address. The finder surfaces a $500 utility charger rebate with a 90-day filing window, a state storage rebate on the battery, and a VPP program paying ongoing credits, none of which the homeowner had priced into either project.

That composite repeats daily with different numbers. The consistent lesson: the incentive layer is large enough to change project decisions, and checking it first is the highest-value five minutes in home electrification.

Programs most homeowners never hear about

Beyond the headline programs sit the obscure layers: municipal green-energy funds in several hundred cities, co-op member rebates that never appear in national articles, income-qualified tiers that multiply standard payouts, and manufacturer promotions that stack quietly on top of everything public. Each is small alone; together they routinely add four figures to a project's incentive haul.

Obscurity is the point of automating the sweep, no homeowner should need to become a policy researcher to collect money programs were funded to distribute. The finder reads the long tail so you don't have to know it exists. When the sweep surfaces a program with unusual conditions, pre-approval windows, participating-contractor requirements, income documentation, the estimate visit walks you through exactly what claiming it takes, and whether the paperwork is ours or yours. Usually it's ours: filing incentives is part of the job here, not a favor, because money left unclaimed is the quietest way a project overpays. Check your address before pricing anything, the order matters more than most homeowners realize: incentives shape which project, which hardware, and which month make sense, decisions that harden the moment a contract is signed. Five minutes with the finder before any quote keeps every option open and every dollar claimable.
