Steps
Treat utility trade-ally portals (e.g., Focus on Energy, Puget Sound Energy's Trade Ally Network, PSE&G's Trade Ally Portal, Pacific Power's Trade Ally Connect) as login-gated contractor web applications, not public APIs — there is no general-purpose open API for submitting insulation rebate applications across utilities.
Enroll as a trade ally with the specific utility first (each utility runs its own enrollment/approval process) before submitting any rebate applications.
Submit rebate applications within the utility's stated post-installation window (commonly 30-60 days; verify the exact window per program, since it varies) through the utility's own web portal.
Track application status through the same portal (e.g., "Online Incentive Center," "Rebate Application Center") rather than expecting programmatic status webhooks.
Known gotchas
Every utility runs its own portal, enrollment rules, documentation requirements, and submission deadlines — don't assume a process that works for one utility transfers to another.
These portals are built for individual contractor login/submission workflows, not bulk/API integration; high-volume contractors typically need a manual or semi-manual process unless the specific utility has arranged a custom data feed.
