City of Palo Alto: Gas Meter Removal Rebate
Rebate Overview
Overview
The City of Palo Alto offers a $2,500 rebate for homeowners who fully electrify their homes by removing their gas meters. This rebate is available as an add-on to appliance upgrade rebates and requires proof of gas meter removal. To access this rebate, you must first submit a rebate reservation application online, including photos of your existing appliances to be replaced, before you select a contractor to perform the work. After approval, you have 120 days to complete the installation and submit the final rebate application with required documentation, such as invoices and proof of permit inspection.
Benefits
Upgrading to an all-electric home can make your living space more comfortable and healthier by eliminating gas appliances that produce indoor air pollutants. It also increases your home's value and reduces your carbon footprint, contributing to a cleaner environment. Additionally, electric appliances can be more energy-efficient than their gas counterparts, leading to lower monthly energy bills.
