| | | 16 Nov 2023 | ODOE to Hold Virtual Meeting on Proposed Rule Amendments for Oregon Rental Home Heat Pump Program | The Oregon Department of Energy will hold a virtual meeting on the proposed rule amendments for the Oregon Rental Home Heat Pump Program, which offers rebates and grants for the installation of heat pumps and related upgrades in dwellings used as a residential tenancy (rentals) and manufactured dwellings or recreational vehicles located in a rented space.
In 2023, the Oregon Legislature extended the Oregon Rental Home Heat Pump Program by one year, until January 2, 2026. At the same time, the language relating to the reserved program budget was also amended. ODOE is launching a process to update the program's administrative rules to reflect those changes and make additional program improvements.
ODOE is now requesting feedback on the proposed rule amendments. Comments on the proposed rule amendments can be provided at the virtual meeting or by email to james.cogle@energy.oregon.gov.
