The Inflation Reduction Act allocated $8.8 billion for home energy rebates through two programs: HEAR (Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates) and HOMES (Home Efficiency Rebates). Implementation varies dramatically by state. California was oversubscribed within weeks. Texas has $690M allocated but no programs launched. Florida, South Dakota, Idaho, and Wyoming have declined or returned funding. States like Connecticut, Vermont, and New York have active programs integrated with existing efficiency infrastructure.
