New York homeowners have access to some of the most generous energy efficiency incentives in the country — but navigating the programs, meeting the requirements, and processing the paperwork can be overwhelming. AI Greenhome is an approved NYSERDA contractor and trusted partner of Con Edison, PSE&G, and Central Hudson. We handle the complexity so you can focus on enjoying your upgraded home.
NYSERDA's EmPower Plus program provides financial incentives for energy efficiency improvements to income-eligible New York homeowners and renters. The program covers a comprehensive range of upgrades, including insulation, air sealing, HVAC improvements, and more — with rebates that can significantly offset or in some cases fully cover the cost of improvements.
Perform the required home energy audit to establish your baseline
Recommend and install eligible measures
Submit all documentation to NYSERDA on your behalf
Ensure all work meets program quality standards for rebate approval
Eligible New York homeowners can qualify for no-cost home energy assessments, no-cost direct install improvements, and funding toward insulation, air sealing, heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, and electrical upgrades, with incentives covering up to 100% of project costs.
Cash rebates for qualifying insulation, HVAC, and smart thermostat upgrades
Long Island utility rebates for efficiency upgrades in the PSE&G service territory
Hudson Valley utility rebates for qualifying home improvements
Up to 30% federal tax credit on qualifying heat pumps and insulation upgrades
Manufacturer and utility rebates for high-efficiency heat pumps and AC systems
Attic insulation, wall insulation, basement/crawl space insulation, air sealing, and duct sealing are core eligible measures under most rebate programs. Achieving target R-values and documented air sealing work are typically required.
High-efficiency heat pump systems (ductless mini-splits and ducted systems) are among the highest-rebated measures. Qualifying systems must meet minimum SEER2 and HSPF2 ratings specified by each program.
Connected thermostats (Ecobee, Nest, Honeywell) qualify for rebates through utility partners and deliver ongoing energy savings through automated scheduling and learning algorithms.
A BPI-certified home energy audit is the required first step for most NYSERDA programs. AI Greenhome provides free energy assessments — this is the starting point for any efficiency upgrade project.
Our BPI-certified auditor evaluates your home from basement to attic, documents existing structural conditions, and identifies qualifying improvements.
We present a prioritized list of recommended improvements with estimated costs, rebate amounts, and projected energy savings — so you can make informed decisions.
We submit the necessary documentation to NYSERDA and utility partners to confirm eligibility before any physical installation work begins.
Our certified teams complete all work to tight program quality standards, explicitly documenting every structural measure for verified rebate submission.
We handle all administrative paperwork and rebate submissions. You receive your incentive payments cleanly without dealing with the utility program bureaucracy.
EmPower Plus is income-based. Eligibility is determined by household income relative to the state median income. In many cases, homeowners who believe they won't qualify are surprised to find they do. The best approach is to simply have AI Greenhome perform your free home energy assessment — we will determine your eligibility at no cost to you.
