Building electrification is the process of replacing appliances powered by natural gas with appliances powered by electricity. There are many benefits to electrifying your home, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving health, safety and comfort.

Silicon Valley Power is offering a pilot program in partnership with CLEAResult to provide home electrification assessments for customers interested in switching from gas to electric appliances. Under this pilot program, a limited number of assessments will be available on a first-come, first served basis.

Qualified participants will pay a $50 copay directly to CLEAResult and Silicon Valley Power will cover the rest of the cost of the assessment. The electrification assessment will examine key areas of your home. If you have current or future plans for electrification upgrades, your assessor can discuss those with you. The assessment report will help you develop a plan, including determining if an electric panel upgrade may be needed to electrify your home.

In-home or virtual assessments are available. Upon completion of your assessment, a short report will be provided with a roadmap to electrifying your home. For more details, visit SiliconValleyPower.com/Residents/Electrification-Programs.
