Step 2: Calculate Your Rebate Using the Table
Once the climate zone and cooling/heating equipment is known, use Tables BA.2 to estimate the potential rebate. For example, a 3 by 5 ft. window meeting the ENERGY STAR® criteria in Climate Zone 1 (Amarillo, Potter County) that uses electric resistance heating could qualify for a rebate of $27.30. A 300 ft2 installation would qualify for as much as $546.00.
Example of 15 sq. ft. window (3’ x 5’): 1.82 $/sq.ft. x 15 sq.ft. = $27.30
| Table BA.2 * | Rebate | Rebate | Rebate |
| For Residential Program | Dollars | Dollars | Dollars |
| per sq. ft. | per sq. ft. | per sq. ft. | |
| Based on kWh | Based on kW | Total | |
| Climate Zone 1: Panhandle Region | |||
| Installed in home with non-electric heating (Gas) | $0.25 | $0.92 | $1.17 |
| Installed in home with electric resistance heating | $0.90 | $0.92 | $1.82 |
| Installed in home with heat pump | $0.65 | $0.92 | $1.57 |
| Climate Zone 2: North Region | |||
| Installed in home with non-electric heating (Gas) | $0.33 | $0.78 | $1.11 |
| Installed in home with electric resistance heating | $0.65 | $0.78 | $1.43 |
| Installed in home with heat pump | $0.50 | $0.78 | $1.28 |
| Climate Zone 3: South Region | |||
| Installed in home with non-electric heating (Gas) | $0.36 | $0.67 | $1.03 |

| Installed in home with electric resistance heating | $0.58 | $0.73 | $1.33 |
| Installed in home with heat pump | $0.51 | $0.75 | $1.26 |
If you are installing an energy efficient window in a commercial building, please contact your local utility to determine how an incentive amount should be calculated.
