MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Celebrating one year of the state’s Home Energy Rebate programs.
Wisconsin received $149 million under the Biden era Inflation Reduction Act for the Home Efficiency Rebate and Home Electrification and Appliance Rebate Programs. The programs are administered by the state Public Service Commission.
Governor Tony Evers says more than $2 million in rebates have been distributed, helping Wisconsin families make home upgrades and keep more money in their pockets. Just under $75 million went to the HEAR program providing discounts for installing energy efficient appliances. Another $75 million went towards the HOMES program for whole-home efficiency improvements.
