Winter is near, and colder weather often means more energy use and higher bills. We want to help, and we’re happy to offer rebates for most of the ENERGY STAR® Home Upgrade series of improvements. These are designed to maximize your energy and cost savings with energy-efficient appliances and products.
Water Heaters
We’re offering a $400 rebate if you upgrade to a super-efficient water heater. Plus, you could qualify for tax credits.
Your water heater is the second-highest energy user in your home, drawing more than your refrigerator, clothes washer, dishwasher, and dryer combined. Water heaters use 20% of a home’s energy.
A heat pump water heater with the ENERGY STAR label is up to four times more efficient and uses 70% less energy than a standard model. Upgrading can help you prepare for a clean energy future, while also saving you hundreds of dollars every year in energy costs.

Heating and Cooling
We’re offering rebates of up to $450 to upgrade your heat pump. The savings are even bigger if you qualify for these tax credits.
Heat pumps can save you money. They are more efficient than both furnaces and boilers and, despite their name, serve double duty by providing heating and cooling. A new heat pump is an investment that delivers benefits year-round.
You can choose a heat pump that will use your home’s existing ductwork to deliver heating or a ductless pump for more targeted results.

What kid wouldn’t want to experiment with static electricity, try their hands at growing vegetables, learn to code, don some electrical lineworker equipment, participate in a program on reptiles, and generally flex their brain in new and exciting ways?
These are just a few examples of the types of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) education programs, activities, and events that we’ve supported over the past year.
Check out this video that showcases some of these experiences—from the Mifflinburg Science Festival in Union County to the Summer Reading Program at the Whitehall Township Public Library in Lehigh County, and communities in between.
In our ever-changing, increasingly complex, and technology-driven world, we know that it’s more important than ever to engage students in STEM disciplines from an early age. It helps develop critical-thinking and problem-solving skills to prepare them for their future lives and careers. That’s one of the reasons we continue to support efforts like the PPL Foundation’s Cover to Cover program and Empowering Educators grants, as well as science festivals, library programs, and other learning opportunities throughout our communities.
After all, today’s student could be tomorrow’s electrical engineer.

The PPL Foundation’s Empowering Educators grants support and encourage teachers to provide hands-on STEM learning experiences. Learn more about the 2022 Empowering Educators grant recipients.
