Frequently Asked Questions
Below are Frequently Asked Questions regarding Evergy’s Heating and Cooling Rebate, Insulation and Air Sealing Rebate and being an Evergy-Authorized Trade Ally. Please contact us if you have a question that is not answered here.
What are Evergy electric heat rates?
Evergy offers an 8-month electric space heating rate for the winter that is ideally suited for energy-efficient heat pumps. Rates for energy reflect the reduced costs associated with supporting heating usage during the winter season. To qualify for the electric space heating rate, the electric heating equipment (such as a dual-fuel heat pump) must be permanently installed, used as the primary source of heating and used throughout the home. Please keep this in mind as you are talking with your customers about their cooling system options. If they already have a heat pump and they replace it with an A/C system, they no longer qualify to be on this reduced rate for electric space heating.

No. We are in the process of requesting approval from Kansas Corporation Commission to offer similar energy-savings opportunities. Evergy is the first utility in the state to request energy efficiency opportunities through the Kansas Energy Efficiency Investment Act (KEEIA), and the goal is to bring these programs to fruition by early 2017. In the meantime, Energy Analyzer can help customers better understand their energy use and find customized tips to save.
Yes. Prior to submitting the rebate application it is required that the customer complete the Energy Savings Kit, which includes a home energy assessment and a direct install component.
