We have two current rebate programs available to incentivize Vermonters to make energy upgrades:
1. Up to $2,500 for Vermonters of Any Income
Home Performance with ENERGY STAR: Up to $2,000 custom incentive
This incentive covers insulation, air sealing, and heating and ventilation systems improvements. So, how do you know what work to do? Get a HEAT Squad Energy Audit, and we’ll walk you through the rest.
Our BPI-Certified Energy Auditor will create your home’s customized report, prioritizing insulation, air sealing, and HVAC system improvments. He will also refer you to Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Certified contractors and affordable financing.
Then, he’ll pay you a visit after the work is complete to make sure you’ve achieved the energy savings promised, and then he’ll do all the paperwork and in a few months time, you’ll be sitting cozy and snug in your home with a $2,000 check from Efficiency Vermont.
Combine it with one of Efficiency Vermont’s cash rebates for heating/cooling system upgrades for the additional $500 – $2,000 rebate.
