Michigan Energy Rebates Overview
Michigan's home energy incentive program in 2026 is centered on MiHER (Michigan Home Energy Rebates), administered by EGLE (Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy) through CLEAResult. MiHER launched statewide April 23, 2025, making Michigan one of the earlier states to deliver IRA-funded HEAR rebates at scale.
Michigan's two largest utilities — DTE Energy (southeastern Michigan, Detroit area) and Consumers Energy (western and central Michigan, Grand Rapids/Lansing) — both operate independent rebate programs that stack with MiHER for income-qualified households.

FAQ — Michigan Energy Rebates
Who qualifies for MiHER in Michigan?
MiHER (Enhanced Rebates) is for households below 80% AMI. Standard Rebates are for 80–150% AMI. EGLE prioritizes low- and middle-income households, including those in federal assistance programs. Both homeowners and renters of single-family and multifamily buildings may qualify.
What is the difference between DTE and Consumers Energy programs?
DTE Energy serves southeastern Michigan (Detroit, Ann Arbor, Flint). Consumers Energy serves western and central Michigan (Grand Rapids, Lansing, Kalamazoo). You can only apply for rebates from the utility that serves your home — check your utility bill to confirm.
How do I apply for MiHER?
Call CLEAResult at 855-510-7080 or email MiEnergyRebates@CLEAResult.com to start. You must work with a registered MiHER contractor — the rebate payment goes directly to the contractor after project completion. Visit michigan.gov/egle/get-rebate for the application steps.
Can I stack MiHER with DTE or Consumers Energy rebates?
Yes. MiHER and utility rebates are separate programs and can be combined as long as total incentives don't exceed the project cost. This is where the biggest savings are — an income-qualified DTE customer can stack MiHER $8,000 + DTE $1,200 = $9,200+ on one heat pump.
