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. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

New Energy Saver Program launches, offering savings on home upgrades
Hoosiers can now apply to the Indiana Energy Saver Program to save money and make their home more energy efficient. (Photo by Jim Still-Pepper/iStock via Getty Images) Low-to-moderate income Hoosiers can now apply to the Indiana Energy Saver Program to save money and make their home more energy efficient. The Indiana Office of Energy Development launched the $182 million federally funded program last week, aimed at reducing utility costs, improving home comfort and boosting energy efficiency for homeowners, tenants, landlords and contractors. According to the release, this first-come, first-served program aligns with Indiana Gov. Mike Braun's mission to enhance affordability and promote sustainable living across the state. 'Cutting energy costs is at the very heart of what we are focused on,' Braun said in the release. 'The Indiana Energy Saver Program prioritizes practical solutions to improve energy affordability and deliver quality products.' Starting this summer, eligible applicants can receive a no-cost energy audit to find potential energy-saving improvements. Following the audit, participants can access two rebate programs: the Home Efficiency Rebate and the Home Appliance Rebate. Each rebate amount depends on household income and project type. The HOMES program funds energy efficiency upgrades including insulation, air sealing, duct sealing, and Energy Star-certified heating, cooling, water heaters, appliances and lighting. Low-income households earning less than 80% of the county's area median income can receive rebates up to 100% of project costs. The HEAR program targets households earning less than 150% of the area median income. It provides subsidies for energy-efficient appliances and systems such as heat pump water heaters, HVAC systems, clothes dryer, electric stoves, cooktops, ranges, ovens and electrical system enhancements. 'The Indiana Office of Energy Development is committed to affordable energy solutions to all Hoosiers,' said Jon Ford, executive director of IOED. 'The Indiana Energy Saver Program is an important instrument in our all of the above strategy that strengthens our efforts to decrease energy costs and enhance home comfort for consumers.' The IOED is partnering with Vincent Village, Inc., a Fort Wayne organization that provides housing and supportive services for families experiencing homelessness. Together, they are launching the program's first pilot project, investing $60,000 to upgrade four homes with energy efficient improvements.
