Submit rebate application
Apply through fpl.com/business/save/programs.html or via your FPL account representative. For prescriptive programs, submit proof of purchase and equipment specifications. FPL reviews and issues payment.
The 25 kW summer peak demand minimum for customized incentives screens out small projects — use it strategically on larger HVAC, chiller, or process cooling upgrades where summer demand reduction is naturally highest.
Deadline & timing
FPL programs run continuously without published annual deadlines. Customers affected by January 2025 Southern California wildfires may submit rebate applications through December 31, 2026 (extended deadline for affected businesses). Customized incentive projects require prior FPL approval before installation.
