Federal Tax Credits & Incentives for Homes

Federal Tax Credits & Incentives for Homes and Residential Buildings

Residents, businesses, community organizations, and governments can save money by reducing energy use and emissions.

Funding opportunities are available to eligible residents, families, businesses, community organizations, and government partners for appliance and building system upgrades that reduce emissions. These upgrades help save on energy costs once installed.

Inflation Reduction Act Home Energy Rebates:

Rebates from the Inflation Reduction Act are not yet widely available.

The Colorado Energy Office (CEO) will receive  a total of $140 million in federal funding for two rebate programs for income-qualified Colorado homeowners and renters to improve home energy efficiency and upgrade to electric appliances. These upgrades will reduce greenhouse gas emissions, improve indoor and outdoor air quality, and lower home energy costs. CEO will roll out a limited initial phase of Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR) through the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) to provide home energy upgrades to low-income Coloradans receiving WAP services. Direct-to-consumer rebates will be available to eligible Coloradans who are not receiving WAP services starting sometime next year. We will provide more information on these rebates as soon as it is available.

CEO also plans to launch the IRA-funded Home Efficiency Rebate (HOMES) program next year to support efficiency improvements in income-qualified multifamily buildings and mobile/manufactured homes.
