Consider taking a comprehensive, whole-home approach when looking to boost comfort and energy efficiency. Start with a home energy assessment. After the assessment, you’ll receive a clear roadmap of recommended improvements, cash incentives and guidance to help you use energy smarter.
IRA Home Energy rebates
As part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), Wisconsin was allocated $149 million for Home Energy Rebates. Focus on Energy was chosen by the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin to deliver IRA Home Energy Rebate Programs. Both Home Efficiency Rebates (HOMES) and Home Electrification and Appliance Rebate (HEAR) are available.
- Home Efficiency Rebate Program (HOMES)
HOMES offers rebates for energy-saving home improvements, including insulation and efficient heating and cooling equipment. Participants need a home energy assessment. Rebate amounts are based on a household’s income level and predicted energy savings from recommended upgrades. - Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR)
HEAR offers rebates to help low- and moderate-income families make their homes more energy efficient. Qualifying equipment currently includes heat pumps, heat pump water heaters, electrical panels and electrical wiring. Equipment must be purchased and installed by an IRA Registered Contractor. You can purchase from any store or website that carries qualifying products, if your HEAR project involves upgrading qualifying kitchen or laundry equipment or self-installing an ENERGY STAR® electric heat pump water heater.
