Beyond the Essentials

Consider becoming even more energy efficient by going beyond the essentials and saving even more money. The Home Performance Program is one of several innovative solutions offered by the Connecticut Energy Efficiency Fund and administrated by CL&P.

Are you planning a home energy project that will include several ways to make your home more energy efficient? One way you can get started is with a Home Energy Solutions assessment. If you are planning multiple upgrades such as insulation, heating and cooling systems, and more, you can submit your project to us and it may qualify for a Connecticut Energy Efficiency Fund rebate under the Home Performance Program. The Program is available for single family or multi-family site specific projects. The financial incentive is determined based on the cost and energy savings of the home performance project. If you are interested in this program please go to the Home Performance Program.
