Utah: federal home energy rebates, LIHEAP and weatherization status

Utah Home Energy Rebates (HER) via Office of Energy Development

federal rebate (state-run)

Status: on hold; DOE has not approved Utah's application

Dates: No launch date

The Utah Office of Energy Development (OED) says the Home Energy Rebate program is on hold until further notice. OED submitted its application to DOE in December 2024; DOE has not approved it (or those of several other state energy offices), so no program funding will go to OED until it does. OED says it will post updates on the page. OED: 801-538-8732.

Status: open for priority households; general applications from Nov 1

Dates: Priority households: Oct 1, 2026 - Sep 30, 2027; others: Nov 1, 2026 - Sep 30, 2027 (or until funds run out)

HEAT is Utah's LIHEAP program. The program year runs October 1 to September 30, or until federal LIHEAP funds run out. Households with a person who has a disability, someone 60 or older, or a child under 6 can apply from October 1; applications from everyone else are processed from November 1. Eligibility: household income at or below 150% of the federal poverty level, responsible for home energy costs, at least one adult, and at least one U.S. citizen or qualified non-citizen. Bring power and heat bills and proof of all household income from the previous month. If you face a shut-off, contact your local HEAT office about crisis help; you can also ask for a referral to weatherization.

Not confirmed or worth knowing: The page states these as recurring program-year dates rather than a dated 2026-27 announcement.
