Multifamily Energy Savings Eligibility Requirements
The property must be a multifamily property with five or more dwelling units.
- Each unit must share either a common wall, ceiling or floor with another dwelling unit.
Properties must also receive service from one of the California investor-owned utilities listed below or an affiliated Community Choice Aggregator (CCA):
- Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E)
- Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas)
- Southern California Edison Company (SCE)
- San Diego Gas and Electric Company (SDG&E)
For Affordable Housing Property Owners and Managers
For a property to qualify for improvements to common areas and other whole-building upgrades, most residents must be income-qualified.
- For Deed-Restricted Properties: The property must house at least 65% of residents with incomes at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, per ESA Program rules.
- For Non-Deed-Restricted Properties: The property must house at least 80% of residents with incomes at or below 250% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, per ESA Program rules. Additional documentation for non-deed-restricted affordable housing may be necessary.
For Affordable Housing Residents
If you’re an income-qualified resident, you may qualify for in-unit measures—even if the property is ineligible for common area or whole-building upgrades. Submit an interest form to learn more!
