Rewiring America’s API offers comprehensive, up-to-date information about electrification incentive programs and eligibility.
We are actively developing the "v1" revision of this API. It currently powers our incentives calculator, and we aim for it to be suitable for inclusion in third-party applications.
The "v0" of this API is still available, but deprecated; we plan to remove it in the near future, and new applications should not use it.

Usage of the API is governed by our API Terms of Service (PDF) (including our API Guidelines and Acceptable Use Policy) and our Privacy Policy.
