Live right now
Payable today. We flag every one your job qualifies for and file the paperwork where a contractor can.
LG&E/KU Optimized EV Charging
Live nowLG&E / KU · $25 enrollment + $5/month ongoing
Enroll a qualifying Wi-Fi-connected Level 2 smart charger (or eligible EV telematics) and LG&E pays $25 up front plus $5 every month you stay in. Up to 10 demand-response events a year; opting out of an event forfeits that month's $5. Enrollment confirmation takes about 4 weeks.
We enroll you during the install — pick a connected charger and the utility literally pays you monthly for owning it.
LG&E residential efficiency rebates
Live nowLG&E / KU · Varies by measure
Heat-pump-adjacent and efficiency rebates for residential customers. Program terms change — confirm the current measure list with LG&E before counting on a figure.
We flag qualifying measures on any job where the electrical scope touches one.

We file your LG&E rebate paperwork where a contractor can — it comes with the job.

Stalled or waiting — do not plan around these
Real programs, not currently payable. We watch them so you don't have to.
Kentucky HEAR + HOMES rebates
StalledKentucky · Not yet available in Kentucky
The federal home-energy rebate programs are stalled at DOE review for Kentucky (step 2 of 5 as of July 2026). Do not plan a project around this money.
We watch this one — if it goes live, qualifying electrical work will be flagged on your quote.
Kentucky ZEV infrastructure grants
ClosedKentucky · Up to 50% of commercial charger cost — applications closed
State grants covering up to half the cost of Level 2 / DC fast chargers at commercial and public sites. Applications are currently closed, reportedly reopening in 2026 — a watch item for businesses.
Commercial charger project? We'll tell you if the window reopens before you build.
