New York state plans to start sending out energy rebate checks of up to $200 next week as part of a previously announced initiative to help residents pay their utility bills amid higher living costs.⁠
⁠
And you don't have to jump through logistical hoops to get them.⁠
⁠
A total of 8.2 million across the state will receive checks. The mailing will last into December.⁠
⁠
Hochul says she is allocating the funds because of rising costs of heat in the winter and air conditioning in the summer. Soaring gas prices compound concerns. The energy rebate checks are part of the $1 billion budget allocated under the "Protecting Our Wallets Energy Rebate" (POWER) program, which provides families relief.⁠
