On July 27, 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released additional information regarding the state application process for the energy rebate programs provided by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). The Indiana Office of Energy Development is closely monitoring the progress and the development of federal guidance. DOE has also established a website for information on these rebate programs.
