HERO Rebate Program at DNR Nationally Ranked

Launched in August 2008, State & Local Energy Report is a quarterly magazine designed to spur greater dialogue among key stakeholders on energy-related issues. The State & Local Energy Report announced in November the Top 10 Most Exciting ARRA Funded State Energy Projects with Louisiana's HERO program being among those selected.

The Top 10 Projects stand out as exemplifying two themes - 1) leveraging federal with private funds and 2) adapting flexibility to local infrastructure for maximum impact.

According to the report "these projects show that America works best when the states and territories do operate a laboratories, tailoring programs to address specific local needs and conditions - from photovoltaic systems for commercial buildings in American Samoa to insulation for homes in Louisiana."
