Overview

About this program

Renew Home formed from OhmConnect and Google’s Nest Renew service in May 2024. Its launch disclosure described nearly 3 GW of controlled electrical energy use. That managed-load measure is different from firm deliverable capacity or an exact household count. Current customer eligibility depends on the participating utility and connected device.
