The Michigan Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) provides all persons (except persons incarcerated in correctional facilities) with access to public records of public bodies. Requests to inspect or receive public records from EGLE must be in writing and describe the requested records with enough detail to enable the department to identify and locate the requested records. Some records are exempt from disclosure under the FOIA or another statute and thus will not be provided. A fee may be charged to process your request. Please note that many records are available that do not require a formal FOIA request.

The Home Energy Rebates program consists of two funding sources from the Federal Department of Energy (DOE):
The Home Efficiency Rebate (HOMES) program will provide rebates to reduce the cost of energy-saving whole-home improvements in existing single-family and multifamily buildings. Rebate amounts for the HOMES program will be based on the amount of energy savings that can be achieved through a project, verified by an energy model that is completed by a qualified program contractor.
The Home Electrification and Appliance (HEAR) program will provide rebates to households installing heat pumps and other efficient equipment to help further electrify their homes. Funding is also available through HEAR for additional qualified improvements including insulation, air sealing, and upgraded electrical panels and wiring.
The Michigan Home Energy Rebates (MiHER) program will fund energy efficiency and electrification upgrades for approximately 15,000 Michigander homes, helping to reduce monthly utility costs, reduce energy use, and enhance comfort and indoor air quality.
The amount of money available for Home Energy Rebates varies depending on the following factors:
