New Energy Options for All.

As the energy system evolves, we are working to ensure that no one is left behind. Emerging Distributed Energy Resources (DERs)—like smart thermostats, window heat pumps, battery storage, plug-in solar, and induction stoves—can help households lower energy bills, improve resilience, and support a clean, affordable electric grid.

That's why we are launching a new initiative to bring cost-saving, resilient energy technology to all households—regardless of income or housing type.

To accomplish that, we are focusing on two key strategies:

1. No-cost Installations for Low-Income Affordable Housing

We are building partnerships and pursuing grants, donations, and other funding opportunities to provide DERs at no cost to affordable housing tenants.

2. Group Buy Programs

By negotiating discounted pricing directly with distributors and installers, we aim to make technologies available at significantly lower costs than households could obtain on their own. 

By filling out this survey, you will help us demonstrate the level of interest in the program to potential funders. We will also place your name on a non-binding waitlist for the technologies you select and update you as the program develops.
