The Energy Upgrade California program is still under development statewide and remains subject to change without notice. The program will be offered on a first-come, first-served basis until funding is expended or the program is terminated, whichever occurs first. Program participation will be available to Southern California Edison (SCE) and Southern California Gas customers only. Eligible detached single family residencies (including all-electric) must have a valid SCE billing address within the SCE service territory. Pre and post inspections may be required to qualify for the incentives. Participation is limited to one incentive payment per household. Incentive checks will be mailed four to six weeks after program completion. SCE’s program is funded by California utility ratepayers and administered by SCE under the auspices of the California Public Utilities Commission.
