Frequently Asked Questions about DTE Rebates
DTE Energy electric or gas that are in good standing are eligible for rebates. Your project must be installed at a DTE-served facility, with one application per location. New construction and major renovation projects are also eligible for select measures.
Rebates are available for a wide range of facility improvements including LED lighting upgrades, high-efficiency HVAC systems, commercial refrigeration equipment, vending machine controllers and new construction projects. If your improvement results in a permanent reduction in energy use and does not fit a standard measure, it may qualify for a custom rebate.
For most projects, yes, and the sooner the better. A reservation application is required before starting any custom projects and is strongly encouraged for all other projects. Reserving early protects your rebate since funds are limited and awarded on a first-come basis.
No. You're not required to use a participating contractor to complete your project. But participating contractors are familiar with the program and can help ensure your equipment meets the specifications needed to qualify. You can find one using our searchable directory of participating contractors.
There's no cost to apply. Rebates are paid back to your organization after your project is complete and your final application is approved — reducing what you spent on the upgrade. The amount you receive depends on the equipment installed and the efficiency improvements it delivers.
Yes. Flexible financing options are available through Michigan Saves with terms as low as 0% APR or as long as 25 years with no upfront costs. Many congregations use rebates and financing together. Rebates lower the total project cost and financing spreads out the rest, making it easier to tackle larger improvements within your budget.
