Tampa Electric - Residential Energy Efficiency Rebate Program
Administered by Tampa Electric
Tampa Electric offers multiple free and low-cost ways to reduce your energy bills: free energy audits to identify savings opportunities, free programmable thermostats through the Energy Planner program (which also gives you lower rates 87% of the time), and rebates for upgrading to efficient air conditioning systems or adding ceiling insulation. You can also get a free ductwork inspection and discounted repair if leaks are found, and weatherization kits with materials like caulk and weatherstripping may be available at no cost depending on eligibility.
Tampa Electric's rebate-eligible upgrades include air conditioning systems meeting energy-saving standards, ceiling insulation installations (with free inspections to qualify customers), programmable thermostats, and ductwork sealing services. The program removes customer barriers through free inspections and audits that identify qualified work, and the Ductwork Discount Program offers customers a professional appraisal and leak sealing for $80, positioning your services as affordable efficiency solutions.
Tampa Electric operates a multi-measure residential efficiency program combining free diagnostic services (energy audits, ductwork and insulation inspections) with rebates for HVAC replacements, insulation, and programmable thermostats, plus behavioral incentive programs (Energy Planner with free thermostat installation, Prime Time Plus demand response credits). The program targets all residential and small business customers in Tampa Electric's service territory; eligibility and rebate amounts vary by measure and should be verified on TampaElectric.com/Save and application forms.
