This job is no longer available
There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
DEQ has an open opportunity for a HOMES & HEAR Program Manager. This is a time-limited position. It is full-time (40 hours per week) with State Benefits for a limited time. Although the length of time this position will be active cannot be determined, it has the potential to extend up to 3 years (36 months). This position currently qualifies for a hybrid telework option with routine office and remote workdays. The NC Department of Environmental Quality trusts our employees to be self-motivated and successful in hybrid/remote roles. Telework options are subject to change at the discretion of management. Of the $400 billion in federal funds released by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), NC DEQ and the State Energy Office (SEO) received $209 million in program funds from the US Department of Energy to implement two new rebate programs for the residents of NC: Homeowners Managing Energy Savings (HOMES) and Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates (HEAR). Together, these new rebate programs offer benefits that improve home energy efficiency, achieve residential energy savings, improve indoor air quality, create jobs, and accelerate the home energy efficiency economy in NC. Determining eligibility for these rebate programs will be based on resident income levels, categorical eligibility models, complex property/building characteristics, and diverse building project types. The HOMES Rebate Program provides financial incentives for whole-home energy efficiency retrofits, while the HEAR Grant Program focuses on rebates for high-efficiency electric appliances and associated projects, with an emphasis on serving low- and moderate-income residents.
