Overview

The Inflation Reduction Act (Pub. L. 117-169, Sec. 50121 and 50122) allocated funding to the U.S. Department of Energy to implement a rebate program to make homes more energy efficient, to provide upgrades to electric appliances, and to cut energy costs. The Home Energy Rebates Program will allow households to obtain clean energy equipment such as heat pumps that will lower energy costs and decrease reliance on fossil fuels. The program is comprised of the Home Efficiency Rebates and the Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates.

The development of and the need for clean energy technologies for the future will create jobs in construction, skilled trades, and engineering. These jobs will help sustain a new clean energy infrastructure and economy, benefiting the American worker and the community.

ADECA is currently in the process of developing the Program for Alabama.
