The City of Milpitas was awarded a $3,000,000 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Energy's State Energy Program (CFDA 81.041) to implement the Milpitas Carbon Neutral Homes Retrofit Program. This program will provide financial incentives of up to an additional $3,000 per household, complementing existing incentives offered by the local community choice energy provider, to cover 40-80% of the retrofit costs for up to 1,000 single-family homes in Milpitas to transition to all-electric appliances. The goal is to accelerate the adoption of carbon-neutral home technology, transform the local market, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions within the Milpitas community. A small portion of the grant funds will be used for program administration, outreach, and education. The project period runs from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2026.
