How we verify program data

How we verify program data

Keeping rebate and incentive information accurate and current is the core of what we do. Here is exactly how we do it.

A full program audit every month

Every program in our library is fully re-audited on a monthly cycle. We re-check each program against its official, primary sources — confirming eligibility rules, benefit structure, deadlines, the administering organization, and the source links themselves. When something has changed, the record is updated and re-dated.

Continuous monitoring in between

Programs can change on any day of the month, so we don’t wait for the next audit to catch them. GetEnergyRebates.com continuously monitors announcements from program providers — state energy offices, utilities, and program administrators — across both media and direct email updates.

AI-assisted filtering and recording

The volume of utility bulletins, agency notices, and program emails is large. Incoming announcements and emails are filtered and recorded with the assistance of AI, so relevant changes are surfaced quickly, every change is logged alongside its source, and nothing important slips through.

Daily review by a Certified Energy Manager

Technology surfaces the signal; a person makes the call. A Certified Energy Manager (CEM) reviews these records every day. When a major change or time-sensitive update is identified — a new program, a closed one, a changed deadline, or a revised eligibility rule — it is reflected on the website immediately, rather than waiting for the next monthly audit.

How to use this information. We work only from published, official information, and we work hard to keep it current — but programs can change without notice, and the program administrator always makes the final eligibility decision. Treat what you find here as a well-researched starting point, and confirm the details with the official source before you purchase equipment or sign anything.
