Home Performance with Energy Star® Program through SCE&G
SCE&G will begin accepting contractors to participate in its Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program. The rebate program offers SCE&G’s electric customers up to $2,500 for air sealing, insulation, duct sealing, HVAC equipment and improvements and water heating equipment. This program is for EXISTING HOMES, not new construction.
Customer Eligibility
Rebates are available to SCE&G electric customers (see attached service territory map) living in separately metered, single family (attached or detached) residences who hire a program participating contractor to install qualified measures which meet program efficiency level requirements. Rebates are only available to customers who purchase and install energy efficient measures through a participating SCE&G Home Performance with ENERGY STAR contractor.
How to Become a Participating Contractor
To participate in the Program, contractors must complete an online Contractor Participation Agreement and submit documentation including a current South Carolina General Contractors License, BPI BA Certification, and a Certificate of Insurance.

Nationally Recognized Solar Training Comes to South Carolina
Greener Product in association with Midwest Renewable Energy (MREA) has opened a solar training facility in Charleston, SC. Please see the attached news release for details. People looking to be training for the coming “green jobs” or others interested in expanding their knowledge in this growing field are welcomed to register.
With the recent announcement that “80% of the energy by 2035 will come from clear/renewable energy” and the new wind research facility in North Charleston, we believe that renewable energy training will be of considerable interest to the people of South Carolina.
We are very fortunate to have Mr. Clay Sterling, Education Director, MREA and one of America’s leading solar educators, lead the sessions. Clay is the only ISPQ-certified instructor in the country to hold certifications in both small wind and photovoltaic. Recently the IREC Institute for Sustainable Power Quality (ISPQ) recognized Clay’s accomplishment and commitment to excellence in renewable energy training by awarding him their prestigious Affiliated Instructor Certification in both small wind and photovoltaic technologies.
MREA, a non-profit established in 1990, is one of the Nation’s oldest and largest providers of solar, solar thermal and wind programs. Through their 38 NABCEP certified instructors they train over 2000 people a year.
The initial program will be presented March 7th and 8th in Charleston and lead to a Certified Solar Assessor accreditation. Click here to learn more and register for the program.
