Improving your home’s energy efficiency doesn’t just lower your monthly utility bills, it may also qualify you for valuable rebates and incentives that reduce the upfront cost of your project.

While the federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Tax Credit (Section 25C) ended for projects installed after December 31, 2025, many homeowners can still take advantage of state-administered rebate programs funded through the Inflation Reduction Act, along with utility company incentives and local energy efficiency programs.

Depending on your household income, projected energy savings, and your state’s implementation, qualifying homeowners may be eligible for rebates of up to $8,000 for whole-home efficiency projects.
