Latest program update

The Department of Public Service states that rebates are not available prior to program launch, that HEAR funding "remains in question" and that Vermonters should not plan on HEAR funds for future projects (that note is dated May 2025). HOMES funds are described as delivering weatherization upgrades at no cost to households below 80% of area median income through the Weatherization Assistance Program and local Community Action Agencies rather than a public rebate portal; the page's HOMES launch note still reads "will launch in 2025," so the current HOMES status could not be confirmed and is treated as unknown.

Vermont rebate questions

Can I still get a federal tax credit in Vermont?

No. 25C and 25D were both repealed by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act for property placed in service after December 31, 2025. Anything installed in Vermont in 2026 earns no federal residential energy credit. Work finished on or before that date can still be claimed.

Are the Vermont state rebates open yet?
