$BRQSF huge demand of heat pump water heaters is coming soon in Oregon!
The Oregon Department of Energy says it has finally received
$113 million from the federal government for long-awaited rebates for heat pumps and other electric appliances but Oregonians won’t be able to apply until late 2025 or early 2026, more than a year later than previously announced.
Lower-income households can use the rebates to offset the costs of a new heat pump, electric stove, home insulation and myriad other home energy-related projects. They are funded through the federal Inflation Reduction Act, the mammoth clean energy bill Congress approved in 2022, and are meant to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help the nation reach its climate targets.
