Electrify everything!

On September 28, 2022, Environment America, USPIRG and Rewiring America held a webinar called Electrifying Your Home: How to Ditch Gas and Electrify Everything!  

With the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act, there has never been a better time for consumers to invest in home electrification. This webinar helps consumers understand the impact of the new law on them, which includes more than a dozen incentives for clean energy home purchases, including heat pumps for home heating and cooling, heat pump water heaters and electric appliances like stoves. 

Consumers enjoy many incentives in the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act to invest in home electrification.

These tax credits and rebates will help Americans electrify their homes, reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and get us closer to a future powered by clean, renewable energy—one home at a time.

The Inflation Reduction Act is like a giant toolbox that families can use to lower their energy costs, and take action to make their homes more energy efficient. U.S. Senator Tina Smith (MN)

Consumers love it:

“It’s definitely worth it, given how long these appliances last.”

“I took a stepwise approach. I invested in solar, took the savings to invest in an EV, took the savings from the EV to get the charger … then I did a cooktop. I’m using the rebates and trying to pay myself forward if you will with the energy savings.”
—Susan Alvarez (Texas)

“Figuring out your home insulation is a great first step. Before we did any of this we insulated our floors … I was amazed at how much of a difference that made.”
—Emily Rusch (California)

“I had to make a few calls before I could find someone who was excited to sell me a heat pump water heater. … don’t take no for an answer … this is proven technology. It’s good for the planet. It will save you money in the long run. ”
—Luke Metzger (Texas)
