The Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) is moving closer to launching the Kansas Home Rebates Program, an initiative aimed at helping Kansas households lower energy costs and improve home comfort. With funding from the Inflation Reduction Act, this program will provide $105.6 million to support energy savings for low- to moderate-income households in Kansas.

The KCC has partnered with HORNE, a nationally recognized professional services firm, to assist with program design, application development, and implementation. To ensure the Home Rebates Program meets the needs of Kansas residents, the KCC is scheduling engagement sessions with stakeholders, including Kansas utility companies, contractors, other state agencies, and the community.

To make rebates available, the program’s design and applications must be approved by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The KCC is working toward a submission deadline of January 31, 2025, with rebate funding expected to be accessible to Kansas households later in 2025, following DOE approval.

In the meantime, Kansans are encouraged to visit the KCC website for information on participating in engagement sessions, learning more about the Home Rebates Program, tracking program updates, and finding answers to frequently asked questions.
