Summary:
Through the Home Performance with Energy Star program, Focus on Energy (FOE) offers in-home energy audits and cash incentives for installing select recommended efficiency measures. Energy consultants inspect home energy systems, help identify the most effective measures for increasing home efficiency, and, and assist participants applying for Cash-Back Rewards for the measures adopted. The cost of the energy evaluation and incentive amounts vary by case and by auditor recommendations.  
 
Income eligible residents may participate in the FOE Targeted Home Performance with Energy Star Program. This program is separate from the standard Home Performance program described above which is available to all income classes. The targeted program begins with a free home energy evaluation. Based on the results of the evaluation, customers may then elect whether or not to proceed with making the recommended improvements. Those who proceed are responsible for only a small portion of the costs associated with the improvements. In order to receive this favorable treatment, participants must follow all of the recommendations made during the evaluation.

Focus on Energy also offers Cash-Back Rewards on efficient heating and cooling equipment and on other selected energy efficient products.  
 
Please note that customer eligibility for Focus on Energy incentives is based on utility participation; interested individuals and companies should use the eligibility tool on the program web site to determine if their local utility participates in the Focus on Energy program.
