Philadelphia Gas Works - Commercial and Industrial Equipment Rebate Program

This program is for commercial and industrial customers of Philadelphia Gas Works; residential customers should check PGW's Residential Equipment Rebates instead. If you own a multifamily property with low-income residents, you may qualify for the separate LIME program offering free upgrades.

You can help your commercial and multifamily clients reduce operating costs by installing qualifying high-efficiency equipment—boilers, water heaters, heat pumps, controls, cooking equipment, and roof insulation—each with specific rebate amounts based on efficiency ratings and equipment size. Submit applications online or by mail with equipment invoices, AHRI or ENERGY STAR certifications, and a copy of the customer's PGW bill; rebates are capped at $25,000 per address (up to $50,000 for comprehensive multi-measure projects) and $150,000 per customer annually on a first-come, first-served basis through August 31, 2027.

PGW's Commercial Equipment Rebate program incentivizes natural gas equipment upgrades across multiple measure categories—heating, water heating, heat pumps, building controls, cooking, and envelope—with rebate amounts ranging from $18 per low-flow showerhead to $9,000 for large commercial boilers, available to all firm-rate commercial customers through August 31, 2027. The program operates on first-come, first-served funding with per-address and annual caps ($25,000 base, up to $50,000 for comprehensive projects, $150,000 annual maximum per customer), requiring AHRI and ENERGY STAR certifications and full payment documentation; as of the latest update, 38% of funds have been used across 11 approved rebates, though check processing is currently delayed.
