Summary

Berkeley Electric Cooperative (BEC) offers several rebates to residential customers for energy efficiency upgrades. The H2O Advantage Water Heater Rebate Program offers a rebate of up to $400 for energy-efficient electric water heaters with a load management switch. BEC must inspect the water heater and install the load management switch prior to awarding the rebate. A rebate of $500 is available to customers who switch from a heat pump to a dual fuel heating system. For customers who switch from a gas to a dual fuel heating system, a $1,000 rebate is available. 

Berkley Electric Cooperative also provides residential rebates for geothermal heat pumps through the Earth Connect Program. Residents who install geothermal heat pumps in either new or existing homes can receive $250 per ton from BEC. BEC also offers a Smart Thermostat rebate program that offers members a $100 bill credit (one per household). Members will also receive additional $50 bill credit for each year of active participation (credit applied in April).
