Before you start
This rebate is for removing your gas meter and cutting off gas service at the main or property line after you've fully electrified your home.
To qualify, you need finaled City permits for both a heat pump for space heating and cooling and a heat pump water heater. If you haven't applied for those rebates yet, start with Apply for a rebate.
The gas meter removal rebate has a separate application process and timeline from other rebates.
For full program details, refer to the rebate program guide (PDF).
Steps
1. Contact PG&E to schedule gas meter removal
Work with PG&E to arrange removal of your gas meter and shut-off of your gas service at the main or property line. See PG&E's guide to this process.
View PG&E's gas disconnect guide.
2. Get your confirmation letter from PG&E
After PG&E removes the meter and cuts off gas service, they'll send you a letter confirming the shut-off. Keep this letter — you'll need to submit it with your application.
You have 1 year from the date on this letter to apply for the rebate.

Within 1 year of your PG&E confirmation letter, submit the following to [email protected] or drop off printed copies at the Planning and Building Counter in City Hall:
