Southern Power District - Residential Energy Efficiency Rebate Programs

Southern Power District offers rebates for upgrading to high-efficiency heat pumps (up to $3,300 for geothermal systems), adding attic insulation (up to $600 at $0.30/sq ft), and tuning up cooling systems ($30). To qualify, you must own a residential single-family dwelling or separately-metered unit with electricity as your primary heating fuel, and must submit a completed application with receipts and contractor signature to your local electric utility.

SPD customers value heat pump incentives ranging from $400 to $3,300 depending on efficiency ratings and type, attic insulation rebates up to $600, and $30 cooling tune-up incentives. All equipment must be AHRI-listed for heat pumps, meet minimum efficiency standards, and be permanently installed in qualifying residential properties; you'll need to sign applications and provide documentation, with a $50 dealer incentive available for qualified heat pump installations that include complete startup testing.

SPD administers three main residential rebate tracks: heat pumps (ductless mini-splits, air source, and geothermal with tiered incentives based on SEER/EER/HSPF ratings), attic insulation (capped at $600 per existing dwelling with 6+ inches R-19 minimum added), and cooling tune-ups ($30 per system). Eligible customers must be residential owners in single-family dwellings or separately-metered units heating primarily with electricity; the utility processes applications after installation and disburses incentives directly to homeowners or contractors. SPD reserves the right to conduct random spot checks for compliance.
