How to enroll in Nest Renew

On the web

To sign up for Nest Renew, visit the Nest Renew website.

Here are key things you’ll need to start enrollment:

• Your home ZIP code
• A Google Account. If you don’t have one, create a Google Account or migrate your Nest account to a Google Account.
• The Home in the app you want to enroll with. This home will need to have an eligible Nest thermostat.

Once you’ve signed in to your Google Account and selected your home in the app, you can continue signing up. This includes an overview of key Nest Renew features.

If available in your area, you’ll have the option to join a local Rush Hour Rewards program. This works with your Nest thermostat to help you earn rewards for using less energy when demand is high on your local grid.
