General Information
AHFC has programs to help Alaskans reduce energy bills on their homes. The objective of these programs is to make a home more energy efficient.
Under the Home Energy Rebate Program, homeowners who want to make their own energy-efficiency improvements on their home can receive a rebate for some or all of their expenditures. The Home Energy Rebate Program has no income requirements.
The second program is the expanded Weatherization Program, available to Alaskans who meet certain income and eligibility guidelines.
General information on both of these programs is also available by calling The Home Energy Rebate and Weatherization Hotline at 1-877-325-2508 (statewide except Anchorage). In Anchorage call 330-8300.
The Home Energy Rebate Program
The rebate program assists homeowners in making the best energy-efficiency improvements for their home. The program requires a certified home energy rater to evaluate homes before and after the improvements. The more a home’s energy efficiency improves, the greater the possible rebate. New! The time limit to apply for the rebate has been extended to 18 months from the date of the initial As-Is energy rating.
The Home Energy Rebate program provides rebates up to $10,000 to homeowners who improve the energy efficiency of their homes.
The Rebate program may provide a $7,500 rebate for qualified new 5 Star Plus homes.
AHFC is making every effort to provide funds to all locations throughout Alaska in a fair and equitable manner.
The Weatherization Program
The Weatherization Program provides free weatherization assistance for homes, rentals and multifamily dwellings. It has been in existence almost 30 years and has contributed to substantial energy savings throughout the state. Individuals interested in participating in this free program should contact the weatherization provider for their area to apply. This program has income-eligibility requirements.
