The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was signed into law to benefit homeowners who make energy-efficient home upgrades. The act includes over $369 billion in the form of tax credits and rebates and allows homeowners who purchase heat pumps or other energy-efficient home appliances to save more than $14,000 in consumer rebates and tax incentives. These energy-efficient upgrades can also save homeowners more than $600 annually on their energy bills. While rebates will not be available until the end of 2023, tax credits are available now to all customers.

Whole Home Energy Reduction Rebate Program (HOMES)

The Homeowner Managing Energy Savings (HOMES) rebate program was created to encourage families to cut back on their energy use and will reimburse homeowners anywhere from $2000-$8000 to homeowners who cut their energy use by 20%-35% (or more). Low- and middle-income households can save $4000-$8000 or 80% of project costs. High-income households can save $2000-$4000 or 50% of project costs. The HOMES rebates are based on the performance of energy savings measured by a threshold of either 20% modeled savings (pre-upgrade) or 15% measured savings (post-upgrade). The more energy you save, the bigger the rebate.

Are Rebates Available Now?

The HEEHRA and HOMES rebate programs will start sometime at the end of 2023 or the beginning of 2024 through state energy offices, depending on federal guidance from the Department of Energy. Be sure to check with Best Home Services to see if rebates are available when you’re ready to purchase.

Tax Credits and Rebates—what’s the difference?

Tax credits are given back when you file your taxes. You can earn up to $3200 in tax credits with the 25C tax credit every year.

Rebates are off-the-top discounts on the purchase of qualifying appliances or equipment. Rebates will be available near the end of 2023 or the beginning of 2024. Contact Best Home Services to stay updated on the latest news on when rebates will be available in your area.
