Home Electrification and Appliances Rebate Program

The Home Electrification and Appliances Rebate (HEAR) Program (Inflation Reduction Act section 50122) is focused on efficient electrification projects for low-to-moderate income (LMI) households defined as households with income less than 150% of the area median. It also requires that entities eligible to carry out projects on behalf of LMI households apply rebates as a discount at Point-of-Sale, as well as allows for installer incentives of up to $500, commensurate with the scale of installed upgrades (Source: DOE).

Please see the NASEO Residential Energy Efficiency Task Force for more information about active Home Energy Rebate programs.
