⚡ Georgia Home Energy Rebates

GEFA Energy Programs

HEAR • HER • EASE — Georgia energy-efficiency and home electrification programs that may help eligible households pay for the upgrades that lower their energy bills.

GEFA energy rebate programs: HER, HEAR and EASE, covering heat pump HVAC, attic insulation and sealing, heat pump water heaters, and smart thermostat installation
What Is the GEFA Program?

Helping Georgia Homeowners Save on Energy-Efficient Upgrades

The Georgia Environmental Finance Authority (GEFA) administers home energy rebate programs that help Georgia households reduce the cost of energy-efficient home improvements. The HEAR and HER programs are funded through the federal Inflation Reduction Act; EASE is a separate Georgia program.

Depending on the program, household eligibility, and the improvements completed, eligible households may qualify for up to $14,000 (HEAR) or up to $16,000 (HER) in rebates. EASE benefits depend on that program's own eligibility rules and funding.

Power Mitigation and Restoration Company is a licensed contractor. We help homeowners identify eligible improvements and complete the professional installation work — we are not GEFA and we do not administer these programs.

Who Does What

Understanding the Three Roles

It helps to know who administers the programs, what the programs are, and where we fit in.

01 · Administrator

Georgia Environmental Finance Authority

GEFA and its program partners set the rules, determine eligibility, approve applications, and issue rebates or assistance. GEFA is a state authority.

02 · The Programs

HEAR, HER & EASE

These are the rebate and assistance programs themselves. HEAR and HER are federally funded home energy rebate programs; EASE is a separate program with its own requirements.

03 · Your Contractor

Power Mitigation & Restoration

We are a licensed contractor and service provider — not GEFA and not a government agency. We help you evaluate eligible improvements and complete the professional installation work.
