Hello TECH Contractors, 


TECH Clean California plans to relaunch our incentive program Spring 2023 and will share more information as soon as it is available.  


In preparation for this relaunch, existing claims must be submitted and ready for approval by Tuesday, January 31, 2023. See table below for impacted claims. 


Claims not impacted are HPWH claims in Southwest Gas and Southern California Gas territories. You may continue to submit eligible claims for which funding is still available. 


All impacted claims currently “Unsubmitted” or “Submitted” must be submitted, with all corrections, by the deadline in order to be eligible for payment. Shortly after this date, our team will begin rejecting any claims that have not been submitted and are ready for approval. 


Please note that BayREN claims or Central Coast Community Energy (CCCE) HPWH claims are not affected by this January 31 deadline.
