Home Energy Rebate Programs

Home Energy Rebate Programs

The West Virginia Office of Energy has secured $88 million in federal funding to support homeowners and renters with energy-saving upgrades. Through the Department of Energy’s Home Energy Rebate Programs, you can make lasting upgrades, improve your home’s comfort, and potentially even lower your energy bills, often at little or no out-of-pocket cost.

Home Owner Managing Energy Savings (HOMES) cuts costs on whole-home energy upgrades like insulation, air sealing, and heating and cooling systems. The more energy you save, the more you can earn back in rebates.

Home Efficiency Appliance Rebates (HEAR)  saves on modern, efficient appliances like heat pump water heaters, electric stoves, and clothes dryers, plus wiring and ventilation improvements that make efficient upgrades possible.

Eligibility

Not sure if you qualify? Learn what documents you’ll need, how your household income is considered, and how renters can participate with landlord approval.

The West Virginia Office of Energy encourages local contractors, electricians, HVAC professionals, and weatherization specialists to get involved in this statewide initiative. Participating contractors will play a vital role in helping homeowners access rebate-funded energy upgrades.

To participate, contractors are encouraged to complete the Certified Energy Contractor training, which covers program requirements, installation standards, documentation procedures, and more. After certification, contractors will be listed in a closed network of certified providers and are eligible to perform rebate-qualifying work.

Eligible West Virginia households can register and submit applications for Home Energy Rebates. Interested residents can log in using Neighborly and join the waitlist today. 


Please note: The WVOE is currently conducting a pilot phase with select households before the statewide launch.
Project installation and energy audits will begin after the pilot phase concludes.
