Rebates & Credits

South Central Indiana REMC’s rebate program is designed to encourage members to purchase energy-efficient equipment. SCI REMC members are eligible for rebates when buying qualifying air-source heat pumps, or geothermal systems.

Members are limited to 2 rebates in the Residential Rebate Program annually.
Vacation homes do not qualify for a rebate.
Once the paperwork is verified through your contractor or through an on-site visit from our Energy Advisor, the rebate will be submitted. (The process takes about 3 to 4 weeks.)

Steps for submitting your rebate application:
