Inflation Reduction Act (IRA): Request for Information (RFI): HOME EFFICIENCY & ELECTRIFICATION REBATE PROGRAMSThis is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of State and Community Energy Programs.
The intent of this request is to inform DOE on best practices for the Home Energy Rebate programs to support durable market demand for installations that improve housing energy performance nationwide. The Home Energy Rebate programs are comprised of two provisions authorizing $8. 8 billion in spending from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (Sec.
50121 and Sec. 50122 of Pub. L.
117-169). Responses to this RFI will be used to create program guidance that will assist states, territories, and Indian Tribes in designing, managing, and improving Home Energy Rebate programs.
The goal is to collect information that will ultimately support states, territories, and Indian Tribes in creating Home Energy Rebate programs that effectively serve U.S. households with technology products and services that reduce energy bills, increase home comfort, improve indoor air quality, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. ----------------------This is a Request for Information (RFI) only.
DOE will not pay for information provided under this RFI and no project will be supported because of this RFI. This RFI is not accepting applications for financial assistance or financial incentives. DOE will consider responses to this RFI as it develops program guidance, expected to be issued as an Administrative and Legal Requirements Document (ALRD) in 2023.
This RFI is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA); therefore, DOE is not currently accepting applications.
