Summary:
The COOLAdvantage Program’s objective is to improve the energy efficiency of new central electric air conditioners and heat pumps. To promote both the sale of energy efficient units and proper installation techniques, the N.J. Clean Energy Program offers rebates for properly sized and installed high efficiency systems. In order to qualify for a rebate, the unit must meet a minimum energy efficient standard, based on its SEER, EER or HSPF ratings, with higher rated systems receiving higher rebates. Current rebate amounts can be found at the program website above. In contrast to earlier program years, rebates are now split between the customer and the contractor.  
 
Customers of Atlantic City Electric, Jersey Central Power & Light, PSE&G and Rockland Electric Company are eligible to apply for this rebate. Those participating in the New Jersey Energy Star Home New Construction Program are not eligible to apply. Installations in newly constructed homes are only eligible if the home is in the Smart Growth Area or Designated Center.
