NEWS FOR HOMEOWNERS -Energy Saving Rebates Columbia Gas of Ohio - Home Performance Solutions Program Columbia Gas of Ohio (CGO) offers rebates on energy efficient equipment and measures to residential customers in the eligible service area. Rebates of up to 70% may be available if a customer purchases or installs measures recommended by an eligible home energy auditor.

Confirm eligibility for incentives with utility and home auditor before purchasing or applying for rebate. Approved contractors are listed on the program web site.
