Experts say the hundreds of millions in rebates allotted for Texas homeowners would reduce the strain on power grids in heat waves and winter storms.
President Joe Biden 's push to hand out billions in rebates to homeowners for energy efficiency upgrades that experts say will reduce the strain on power grids in heat waves and winter storms is slow going in Texas and many other Republican -led states.
At that point, individual households would be eligible for up to $22,000 in rebates — depending on their income — for work reducing their homes' energy consumption and buying more efficient equipment and appliances. That could include everything from new electric panels for charging electric vehicles to hyper-efficient electric stoves. 'Texas has not fallen behind,' Chris Bryan, a spokesperson for the comptroller's office, said about the state's preparations.
