Today, Wisconsin launched the first-in-the-nation Home Efficiency (HOMES) rebate program – enabling households at all income levels, with an emphasis on lower-income households, to save on energy efficiency improvements such as insulation, air sealing, and heat pumps that reduce whole-home energy consumption. “Across Wisconsin, the Inflation Reduction Act is helping families cut costs and expand access to smart upgrades that not only reduce families’ footprint, but also save money as we invest in more efficient appliances, vehicles, and household necessities,” said Senator Baldwin. “I was proud to support this program for Wisconsin to help families save on the front end of cost-cutting investments that will deliver savings for years to come.” The HOMES rebate program is part of an $8.8 billion investment under the Baldwin-backed Inflation Reduction Act for states, territories, and Tribes to lower energy costs and increase efficiency in American homes by making it cheaper to install cost-saving measures such as heat pumps, electrical panels, and insulation. These energy-saving measures will save American households up to $1 billion annually in energy costs and support an estimated 50,000 U.S. jobs in residential construction, manufacturing, and other sectors.
