How does Progress Energy’s Home Advantage program work?
Home Advantage is a new, residential construction program that offers cash rebates and other incentives for building ENERGY STAR® certified homes in Progress Energy Carolinas’ service territory. The program is open to builders and developers of new single family, multifamily and high-rise multifamily dwellings, and to manufactured housing manufacturers and retailers. Incentives are also available for additional energy efficiency measures that can be added to the ENERGY STAR certified home, as well as advertising and sales support. Progress Energy Carolinas awards a $400 cash rebate to builders or developers for each ENERGY STAR certified Home Advantage home. Manufacturers of manufactured homes receive a $300 rebate per certified home; retail sales lots receive $100 for each home sold. These rebates help defray additional costs for meeting program requirements. Click here for a complete overview of program requirements and incentives.
