City of Terre Haute announces new energy savings program
TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV)— The City of Terre Haute has announced the Indiana Energy Saver Program to help low to moderate-income households.
This will be a statewide initiative aimed at helping residents reduce their energy costs and upgrade their homes with energy efficiency in mind. The program will be administered by the Indiana Office of Energy Development and will be supported by nearly $182,000,000 in federal funding.
One part of the program available to all Indiana households is the Home Efficiency Rebate (HOME). This will offer rebates for whole-home energy efficiency upgrades that achieve at least 20% energy savings. Eligible improvements include insulation, air sealing, ENERGY STAR-certified HVAC systems, water heaters, appliances, and lighting. Households that earn less than 80% of the area median income may even qualify for rebates covering up to 100% of project costs with up to $18,000 in rebates.
Another main part of the initiative is the Home Appliance Rebate (HEAR). This program targets low- and moderate-income households that make less than 150% of the area median income. It provides rebates for purchasing and installing energy-efficient appliances and necessary electrical upgrades. Eligible items include heat pump water heaters, heat pump HVAC systems, heat pump clothes dryers, electric stoves, cooktops, ranges, ovens, and electrical system enhancements. Maximum rebates for this program can reach up to $14,000.
Homeowners and renters in single-family or multifamily homes are eligible to apply. Those who do must provide proof of income and residency. Households that participate in certain federal assistance programs such as LIHEAP, Medicaid, SNAP, and SSI may automatically qualify.
'This is about more than saving money—it's about dignity, opportunity, and long-term sustainability,' said Mayor Brandon Sakbun. 'The Indiana Office of Energy Development has played a critical role in keeping this funding alive and helping local governments like ours ensure that every eligible household can access it. We're proud to work alongside them to put these resources to work in Terre Haute and beyond.'
To apply, residents can click this link and complete the pre-screening process. A representative with the program will then conduct an energy assessment to identify improvements and develop a plan for you. Rebates will be provided as upfront discounts applied to the cost of eligible products and installation services performed by qualified contractors.

May will go down as another month with above normal rainfall at 7.57″. This brings our 2-month total from April and May to over 20″. We've seen enough, and we're catching a break for now, but another period of rain is likely later next week. Download our KOLR 10 weather app Dense fog may make your morning drive difficult. Visibility in some spots is reduced to less than half a mile. Fog is expected to lift by 9 AM, revealing a mostly sunny sky. Today will be nice, so soak in every minute this Friday. Skies will feature a mix of sun and clouds this afternoon, along with periods of mostly sunny conditions. Temperatures will warm to the mid-70s with a light northwest breeze. The weekend looks just as nice with a trend toward warmer temperatures. Humidity levels remain low, and rain chances are scarce. A slight chance for rain exists west of Highway 65 Saturday night. We get back to quiet and mostly sunny skies on Sunday with temperatures in the 80s. Something else this weekend is the potential for wildfire smoke from Canada to create a hazy sky. Surface air quality should be fine as smoke is likely to stay in the mid to upper levels of the atmosphere. Looking ahead at the upcoming pattern, another round of storms is positioned to arrive on Thursday next week. June will likely begin with another rainy period starting in the middle of next week through next weekend. Several rounds of rain during the first 10 days of June could lead to more flooding.
