Important information about purchasing equipment (as of 4/1/2020)
In order for your project to be eligible for a Custom Efficiency rebate, you’ll need to submit a Custom Solutions application before you purchase any equipment. However, we encourage you to purchase your equipment after you receive your Approval letter to ensure your project can qualify for a Custom Efficiency rebate.
Step 1: Connect with your account manager or our energy advisors
Connect with your account manager or our energy advisors at 855.839.8862 for assistance and to discuss whether your project might be a good fit for a Custom Efficiency rebate.
Step 2: Gather the proposed project's equipment specifications
This may include a proposal, information sheets from the manufacturer and/or any information you have about the proposed technology. Then, complete the Custom Efficiency Workbook (XLSM) and attach it to your application in step 3. (If you receive an error message when opening the workbook, please clear your browser history and try opening the link again.)
Step 3: Complete and Submit your Custom Efficiency Application
Please complete a Custom Efficiency Application (PDF) or an Online Application. Please keep in mind that submitting an application does not guarantee your project will qualify for a Custom Efficiency rebate.
Step 4: Qualification Letter
Once you’ve submitted your application and all the required documents, you’ll receive a letter within about two weeks letting you know if your project can qualify into the program. If your project qualifies, your Approval letter will indicate the rebate amount your project is eligible to receive.
Step 5: Complete Your Project and Submit for Final Approval
Reach out to your Xcel Energy contact when your project has been completed and submit all paperwork that’s requested. Your project will be reviewed for final approval before a rebate check is issued for your project.
