Homes with energy reduction of 20% are eligible for maximum rebate of $2,000, or half the cost of the retrofit project (whichever is less).
-
Homes with energy reduction of 35% are eligible for maximum rebate of $4,000.
-
Homes with energy reduction of 35% and qualify as lower income (<80% of local median income) are eligible for maximum rebate of $8,000.
