Quick quiz: California rebates
A few questions from the programs we track. Tap an answer to see why.
Short answer: We have not verified a current home rebate from the utilities that serve San Diego (PG&E, Southern California Edison, SDG&E and others) on a program page, so we show no utility amounts here. Statewide heat pump help (TECH Clean California and the federal HEEHRA program) is fully reserved and taking waitlist requests only. The federal 25C and 25D tax credits ended for 2026 installs.
What we could not confirm
Utility rebates from PG&E, Southern California Edison and SDG&E. Quoted amounts on other sites do not match a program page we could read, so we leave them out. Ask your utility before you buy, and tell us at hello@homepowerrebate.com if you find a current one.
Statewide programs
| Program | Amount | Rules |
|---|---|---|
| TECH Clean California (single-family) | Waitlist onlyWaitlist | Single-family incentives are fully reserved. New requests go on a waitlist. It was a contractor-applied discount of $1,000 to $5,000. Source (checked 2026-09-26) |
| HEEHRA income-qualified heat pump rebate | Waitlist onlyWaitlist | Fully reserved statewide since February 24, 2026. It was up to $8,000 for households under 80% of area median income. Source (checked 2026-09-26) |
| Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) | Varies by tierConfirm status | Income-qualified, medical baseline or high fire-threat households. Much of it is waitlisted. Check the SGIP step tracker at selfgenca.com. Not added to your total. Source (checked 2026-09-26) |
The federal 25C and 25D tax credits ended for spending after December 31, 2025, so we do not count them.
