BWP Battery Rebate: Standard vs. Enhanced Rates Explained
BWP pays $275 per kWh (standard) or $530 per kWh (enhanced) toward home batteries in Burbank, up to 100 kWh. Learn which rate fits you.
· For Burbank Water and Power (BWP) customers
Burbank Water and Power offers a Battery Storage Rebate for Burbank customers who pair a home battery with solar. There are two rates.
The two rebate rates
| Rate | Amount | Who it is for |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | $275 per kWh | Customers who also claim the federal tax incentive |
| Enhanced | $530 per kWh | Qualifying residential customers who do not take the federal tax incentive |
Both are capped at 100 kWh of storage, so the standard maximum is $27,500.
Example: one Tesla Powerwall
A Powerwall stores about 13.5 kWh:
- Standard: 13.5 × $275 ≈ $3,713
- Enhanced: 13.5 × $530 ≈ $7,155
Important limits
- The rebate cannot exceed your eligible installed net cost.
- The battery must be paired with solar and approved by BWP before installation.
- Funding is limited, and specific battery model eligibility must be verified with BWP.
