Colorado - Residential Energy Efficiency Rebate Program

September 01, 2011

Summary

Note: Under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is providing a total of $300 million to U.S. states, U.S. territories and the District of Columbia to establish rebate programs for new energy-efficient appliances that replace existing appliances in homes. Each state and territory has designed its own program. Rebates will be available until the state or territory program's funding is exhausted. Be sure to confirm that rebate funds are still available in your state or territory before making purchasing decisions.

The Colorado Governor's Energy Office (GEO) is offering rebates to homeowners who purchase and install certain energy efficient appliances, heating equipment and weatherization materials. To be eligible for appliance rebates, the old appliance must be uninstalled and properly recycled. Rebates are only available for equipment purchased on or after April 19, 2010 while funds are available. Interested Colorado homeowners can apply for the rebates online at the website above. After receiving a reservation confirmation from the GEO, the homeowner can go ahead with the purchase.

In addition to these rebates for energy efficient equipment, the GEO also has rebates for certain renewable energy purchases.
