How to use this page

Three checks before acting on a local result

Confirm the permit authority. This page is scoped to Philadelphia, PA. If a property is outside city limits or in a special district, confirm the local authority before using this as a planning path.

Keep permits and incentives separate. A rebate or utility incentive does not replace permit review, and an empty rebate section only means HomeReq has no approved local program record published for this project yet.

Open the official source before starting work. Use the source cards and verification dates as a trail back to the issuing department, utility, or program administrator.

Electrical, building, solar, fire, and utility permit check for battery storage

Philadelphia L&I says an Electrical Permit is needed for electrical system installation, alteration, replacement, and repair, and solar projects require an Electrical Permit plus a Building Permit when they are not EZ-eligible. A residential battery storage or backup-power project should be checked with L&I, PECO, and fire or health officials where applicable because the scope can include new electrical equipment, service or panel changes, solar interconnection, structural mounting, building work, emergency power equipment, or utility coordination.
