Funding & Financing Resources for Contractors

DCEO Equitable Energy Future Grant Program

The Energy Efficiency Assessment Program provides funding to public housing authorities, local governments, or nonprofit organizations to conduct energy efficiency assessments at properties benefiting residents receiving housing assistance from a state or federal program.

A professional energy assessor or auditor conducts a site inspection and evaluates the residence to identify energy equipment, structural, and behavioral inefficiencies. Examples of recommendations found in the final report from an energy efficiency assessment can include installing programmable thermostats, adding insulation, or upgrading lighting fixtures.
