Black Hills Energy wants to financially reward those who build a new, energy-efficient home. Installing energy-efficient technologies during new home construction is a smart way to lower your energy bills. Black Hills Energy’s Residential New Construction Rebate Program offers rebates to help you save money.
This program promotes on-site energy evaluations with the aim of providing recommendations to residential customers, who purchase electricity and/or natural gas, about ways you can reduce energy consumption in your home. This includes single family homeowners and renters, as well as multi-family housing in buildings containing 1-4 units. Newly constructed homes are ineligible for program services until at least 5 years after construction, or as determined by a program administrator.
Income-qualified residential customers can receive financial assistance through the Black Hills Energy Affordability Program or BHEAP.
Colorado Electric customers must apply to the program and meet the eligibility requirements. Colorado gas customers who receive Leap benefits and meet eligibility requirements will be automatically enrolled in BHEAP for one year, and will receive an affordable bill. The affordable bill is calculated as a percent of actual household income relative to the Federal Poverty Level.
