California is making significant strides toward energy efficiency with the launch of the Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEEHRA) program, backed by federal funding. The California Energy Commission (CEC), in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy, has announced $80 million in rebates to encourage multifamily building owners to implement electrification projects, such as heat pump systems and electric appliances.
Part of the Inflation Reduction Act, the program focuses on benefiting low- and moderate-income households, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance building resilience. Single-family homeowners can also expect rebate applications for heat pump installations to open soon.
Governor Gavin Newsom praised the initiative, highlighting its dual benefits of lowering costs for residents and addressing climate change. Applications are now open through TECH Clean California, a statewide network dedicated to advancing energy equity.
