The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provides support for the clean energy transition in multiple ways. Learn more below.
Rebates from the Home Energy Rebate program and the High Efficiency Electric Home Rebate Act funded through the Inflation Reduction Act are not currently available. The State Energy Conservation Office (SECO) is awaiting federal guidance and funding for the two rebate programs. SECO will provide more information on these rebate programs as soon as it is available.
