Nevada Home Energy Fitness Campaign

The NSOE received a $5 million grant for the Nevada Home Energy Fitness Campaign (formerly the Nevada Retrofit Initiative or NRI) which will strengthen Nevada’s residential building retrofit market. The goal is to implement Home Performance with Energy Star (“HPwES”) and ultimately retrofit at least 5% of all single family residences in Nevada by 2021. Home Fit will enable Nevada to demonstrate innovative and impactful project models that are highly transferable, both statewide and nationally. The innovations of this project are expected to generate more than 2,000,000 MMBtu in annual energy savings by 2021, create/preserve more than 2,400 jobs, and contribute an economic impact of more than $220,000,000.

Participants in the Nevada Home Energy Fitness Campaign will be assisted by HomeFree Nevada in contacting an energy assessment professional to perform an energy assessment and a certified contractor to make the recommended upgrades. Once upgrades have been made, participants will receive a second assessment to ensure the 20 percent energy efficiency upgrades have been achieved, as well as a quality assurance evaluation by a third party, and then will receive a $1,000 rebate on their initial investment of at least $2,000.
