Background

The Green Home Advantage, LLC also provides a Louisiana HERO (Home Energy Rebate Option) Final Rating. This is ONLY for homeowners who are participating in this Louisiana incentive program.  This is not a stand-alone service but simply a follow-up visit to an earlier Home Energy Audit.  The purpose of this second on-site evaluation is to quantify and document the energy savings that were achieved by the homeowner's upgrades.
 

Louisiana Cash Rebate

Louisiana’s Home Energy Rebate Option (HERO) program offers a cash rebate payment up to $3,000 to any eligible homeowner who significantly improves the energy efficiency of their existing home.  Upgrades must reduce the house’s energy use by at least 30%.

The HERO program is managed by the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Technology Assessment Division (TAD).  From the DNR/TAD website; "All ratings are performed by private sector Energy Raters.  These experts are trained and certified to submit the required documentation to DNR/TAD for participation in the HERO program.  A rating includes an on-site inspection of the home and detailed computer analysis and generally costs between $400 and $600, depending on the size, complexity of the home and distance to travel."  For more information, please visit the DNR/TAD website.

HERO Final RATING Fees

TGHA charges a flat fee of $175 for all homes inside our normal operating area, regardless of the size and complexity.
