SUMMARY:Tribal Home Energy Rebates Update Information Session
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an informational update session for the High-Efficiency Electric Home Rebates (HEEHR) Program for Indian Tribes. This U.S. Department of Energy program\, formerly called the Tribal Home Energy and Appliance Rebate (THEAR) Program\, will distribute up to $218.5 million in grants for energy efficiency upgrades for Tribal homes. All federally-recognized Tribes and Alaska Native Corporations are eligible to receive formula awards from the program. The U.S. DOE recently released updated guidance for the program through Program Notice 26-3\, which reopened and extended the application deadline to December 11\, 2026. \n\n\n\nDuring this information session\, DOE will provide an overview of the revamped Tribal HEEHR program\, review Program Notice 26-3\, and cover associated program guidance changes. We will also discuss next steps\, level-set for moving forward\, and provide time for Questions & Answers. This session will provide helpful information for Tribes who have already applied to the program and currently have conditional awards\, Tribes that applied but do not have conditional awards\, and Tribes who have not yet applied. \n\n\n\nWe look forward to sharing program updates and continuing to work together to reduce energy costs for Tribal households.
