Rebates cover 35% of the cost of the following energy improvements and are sent directly to homeowners. (Efficiency standards apply.)  Eligible improvements include: 

Attic insulation and air sealing

Wall insulation

Furnaces & boilers

Central air conditioning

Lighting

Exterior doors

Replacement windows

 

In order to receive a rebate, homeowners must finance their energy improvements. Two loan rates are available. The lowest rate is for Minnesota Energy Loan customers who finance and install at least one energy improvement recommended by an energy auditor. Loan proceeds can pay for energy improvements as well as general home improvements, but only qualifying energy work is eligible for rebates.  Both loan rates are below market and are fixed-rate loans. The Fix-up Fund interest rate is currently 5.99% and the Minnesota Energy Loan is 5.75%.  Household income limits for these loans are currently $96,500.
