Bryan hubRebates
Match the rebate to the name on the bill
Bryan and College Station do not share one rebate list. Applying to the wrong city wastes a season. Dollar amounts below were published on utility sites in 2026 — they change by fiscal year.
College Station (CSU) — HVAC
Energy Back II: $600 / $700 / $800 for 16 / 17 / 18+ SEER full-system replacement in existing homes. Plus $30 Wi-Fi thermostat, small LED credit, and a free on-site survey.
College Station hubFederal 25C (either city)
Insulation, windows, and heat pumps may stack a federal energy-efficient home improvement credit on top of the local check. Confirm current IRS limits with a tax pro; this site is not tax advice.
IRS 25CElsewhere in Texas
Municipal utilities and co-ops still cannot shop REPs. Deregulated territories (Oncor, CenterPoint, AEP Texas, TNMP) can use Power to Choose. That is not Bryan or College Station.
Power to Choose (deregulated only)Entergy Texas battery rewards
If the bill says Entergy Texas and you have a qualifying home battery, Greater Grid’s program pays up to $325/year for sharing stored energy at peak. Enrollment and Sept 15 timing are on their page. Not available on BTU or College Station Utilities.
Greater Grid / Entergy TexasTesla Powerwall VPP (Entergy Texas)
Powerwall 2, 3, and Powerwall+ owners on Entergy Texas enroll through Tesla’s Virtual Power Plant page and the Tesla app — same seasonal peak-sharing rewards, not a BCS municipal program.
Tesla Entergy Texas VPPEntergy Texas EV off-peak + Time of Day
If the bill says Entergy Texas — including some Brazos County / 77845 outskirts, not typical BTU or CSU meters — EV Demand Solutions pays up to $100 for weekday off-peak charging (7 p.m.–1 p.m.). The FAQ has listed it as fully subscribed / waitlist; confirm live. Entergy’s Time of Day rate is whole-home, not EV-only. Do not copy either onto Bryan or College Station Utilities.
