We were honored to join our partners, Generation Power CT, at the The National Energy and Utility Affordability Coalition (NEUAC) Conference to share how collaboration can help Connecticut residents access healthier, more energy-efficient homes. Together, HomeEnergy ConneCT and Generation Power CT are helping families overcome barriers like mold, asbestos, and outdated equipment that often prevent them from qualifying for energy efficiency programs. By combining flexible funding with personalized energy counseling, we've helped unlock more than $154,000 in utility incentives and supported 73 projects across Connecticut.
