PSEG Long Island (electricity & natural gas)
Babylon spans from historic South Shore waterfront (Lindenhurst, Patchogue area) to newer suburban inland developments. Large share of older homes on gas furnaces.
$0.16–$0.20/kWh typical (varies by season). Winter heating demands favor heat pumps; summer cooling also significant.
Generally reliable with occasional summer peak stress. Battery backup increasingly valuable during extreme heat events.
The PSEG heat pump and battery rebates go to whoever owns and installs the equipment — typically your landlord. No PSEG renter-specific program currently exists. If you want these upgrades, the ask goes to your landlord or property manager.
In-unit upgrades you control (heat pump water heater, smart thermostat) may qualify for rebates with HOA approval, especially for shared wall or electrical concerns. Confirm HOA approval in writing before applying.
PSEG pays $4,000 to $7,500 depending on household income. Most Babylon households qualify for the full $7,500. Installed cost typically runs $13,000–$22,000, so the rebate covers a meaningful share.
No — PSEG Long Island does not currently offer a utility solar rebate. A typical 6 kW system costs roughly $15,000–$18,000 and saves around $1,200 a year, paying back in about 13 years. The federal solar tax credit expired December 31, 2025.
PSEG offers $200/kWh through NYSERDA, which works out to roughly $2,700 for a typical 13.5 kWh system. A battery also provides backup during outages, increasingly valuable in Babylon.

Every Friday: what I'm learning about rebates across every region we cover. Real stuff, no marketing.
Rebates cover the upfront cost, but the number that decides whether this is worth it is the payback period — how long until the monthly savings pay back what you spent out of pocket. Here's the real math using PSEG Long Island's actual current electricity rate:
A modern cold-climate heat pump typically moves 2.5–3.5 units of heat per unit of electricity it uses (its "coefficient of performance"), which is why it beats electric resistance heating on cost even at the same per-kWh rate. PSEG Long Island is electric-only in most of its territory; Long Island gas customers are typically National Grid, a separate bill. We didn't find a reliable current per-therm gas rate for PSEG Long Island territory to compare against — rather than guess, we're leaving gas-furnace payback math out until we can source it properly.
