Energy rebates for Michigan multifamily properties.
Multifamily properties in Southeast Michigan served by DTE Energy can start with a no-cost energy assessment and claim rebates for lighting, appliances, HVAC, water heating and insulation, with higher rebates for income-qualified properties. ONPEAK qualifies your properties, prepares the applications and manages the project, and you pay our fee only once the rebates are approved.

DTE's multifamily program starts with a free assessment, then pays rebates once the upgrades are done. Rebate funds are limited and awarded first come, first served, so timing matters. It covers buildings with three or more units under one roof.

FAQ
What owners ask us.
Does my Michigan property qualify?
DTE's multifamily program covers buildings with three or more units under one roof, served by DTE for gas, electricity or both. ONPEAK works with properties of 50 units or more. Send the address and we will confirm.
Is this really no cost?
The assessment is free. Michigan upgrades are paid for by rebates after the work is done, so the owner funds the equipment first and claims the rebate. Your scan shows what each project could return before you decide.
Why does timing matter?
Rebate funds are limited and awarded first come, first served. Applying early gives a project the best chance of being funded.
Do income-qualified properties receive more?
Yes. The program has enhanced rebates for eligible income-qualified properties. Tell us about the residents and we will check which applies.
Which savings reach the owner?
Water heating, central systems and common areas usually reach the owner. In-unit electricity usually reaches residents. Our report separates the two.
