Home battery rebates in Ontario
The first tip comes from the program’s own steps. Each program’s rules come first.
- How HRSP works in Ont.
- Go to homerenovationsavings.ca and choose the with-assessment or without-assessment path. Heat pumps and attic insulation: confirm eligibility online and hire a participating contractor, who submits the application. Heat pumps need pre-approval before installation.
- Check the pairing rules
- Many battery rebates only apply when the battery is installed with new solar, not added to an existing system.
- Size it for what you need
- Decide whether you want backup power for essentials or daily bill savings. The answer changes the size and cost.
- Confirm utility approval
- Your utility may need to approve the interconnection before installation.
