Yes, you may enroll multiple times across different projects and/or programs. However, the maximum amount of credit per account is $25,000.
Yes. If we initially deny you for on-bill repayment, you may reapply after 60 days.
If you believe you have a valid reason to be reconsidered before then, we have an appeal process to review your application.
Eligibility for this incentive is restricted to customers in one of the following groups:
First, you should discuss on-bill repayment with your participating contractor, who will apply for it on your behalf prior to starting your project. To qualify, you must have 12 months of continuous, on-time payment history with PSE&G.
If you’ve not yet been a PSE&G customer for 12 months, you still may be eligible for on-bill repayment. Ask your previous gas or electric utility to provide you with a letter of credit (for service within the past 24 months) confirming that your account had 12 months of continuous, on-time payment.
Once we approve you for on-bill repayment, we’ll notify your participating contractor, and they can enroll you.
All payment agreements are between PSE&G and the eligible customer. Please note that the PSE&G account holder at the property where the work is performed must be the customer who signs the agreement.
PSE&G will notify your contractor that you’ve been approved or denied, and they will inform you.
Yes, you may enroll with each of your PSE&G accounts. Please note that you will be subject to a maximum outstanding balance of $25,000 per account.
If you are enrolled in on-bill repayment, you can either pay the outstanding balance in equal monthly installments over the term of the agreement or pay one lump sum for the full remaining balance at any time.
Please note that once you are enrolled in an installment plan, we cannot accept surplus payments toward the principal of your on-bill repayment balance.
Yes. Your contractor can apply for on-bill repayment on your behalf prior to the start of your project.
If your account is closed for any reason, the unpaid balance is due and payable to PSE&G within 30 days.
Our on-bill repayment option gives you the flexibility and convenience of being able to pay for home energy efficiency upgrades over a period of time, interest-free. With this option, your monthly PSE&G energy bill will contain repayment installments of equal amounts.
All on-bill repayment options are interest-free (0%). On-bill repayment terms pertaining to specific PSE&G programs are as follows:
Home Performance with ENERGY STAR®

The Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program takes a “whole-home” approach to make existing one- to four-family homes and low-rise multi-family buildings more energy efficient, and to lower energy consumption.
Each participating contractor has been certified by the Building Performance Institute. These specially trained professionals use advanced diagnostic equipment to test your home and identify energy efficiency improvements that may be right for you.
During the assessment, your contractor may use a blower door and infrared scan to test for air leakage; conduct a series of combustion-related tests; and explore opportunities to improve your home’s insulation, heating and cooling system, appliances, and lighting. Your contractor will then explain to you what improvements can be made, and what they will cost.
Enrollment in the program must be done at the building management level, rather than by individual residents. If you’re interested, please have your property manager contact us at 1-855-846-2895.
To be eligible for the program, you must be a current residential PSE&G customer with a valid account number, as well as the owner of the house where the assessment will be performed.
Our Building Performance Institute certified contractors perform critical combustion safety-related tests before and after completing energy improvements to the home. Assessing and testing combustion appliances—such as heating equipment, ovens, and water heaters—for proper performance and carbon monoxide emissions helps ensure safe, efficient operation and prevent dangerous gases from being introduced into the home. Such tests are critical when making a home more energy efficient and comfortable.
The scope of upgrades, and the time needed to complete them, will vary depending on your home and the type of energy efficiency improvements you choose.
To complete the selected upgrades, your contractor may have to visit your home on multiple days. We strongly recommend that you meet with your contractor at the beginning of each day before work begins, and at the end of the day to review their progress and help you better understand the project timeline.
You can qualify if your multi-family property is three stories or less and has three or more dwelling units that are attached to each other. Townhouses in which units are not attached but still receive electric or gas service from PSE&G also may qualify.
If you live in a single-family home, your property owner may contact a participating contractor.
If you live in a building with three or more units, your residence does not qualify. However, your building may be eligible to participate in our Home Performance with ENERGY STAR for Multi-family Homes Program if your property owner or manager decides to enroll.
Recommendations may include sealing gaps, cracks, and other leaks to prevent outside air from entering your home; adding insulation and sealing; insulating or replacing air ducts that run through the attic or crawl spaces; and repairing or replacing old or poorly functioning heating and cooling systems and appliances. Installing ENERGY STAR® certified lighting is another commonly performed, cost-effective improvement.
Your selected contractor sets the cost of the initial energy assessment, and your total project costs will depend on the upgrades you choose to perform. Homeowners may receive rebates and may qualify for on-bill repayment to help offset or defer the costs of eligible improvements.
Once your energy assessment is complete and you receive the contractor’s recommendations, it’s your decision whether to sign a contract and move forward with the improvements.
You are under no obligation to have the work performed—but remember, our recommended energy efficiency improvements can lower your energy bills, as well as improve indoor air quality and the comfort of your home.
