Illinoisans Deserve Affordable Energy

You deserve energy cost relief

• Why It Matters

  It’s no secret: energy costs a lot. Whether you’re paying your monthly energy bill, or you’re trying to weatherize your home or buy energy efficient appliances, costs add up quickly. Over 23% of Illinois households live in energy poverty.

  Illinois has financial incentives and programs to support homeowners and renters looking to enroll in assistance, upgrade to electric appliances, weatherize their homes, make other home improvements that reduce bills, and more. Programs are available, but it’s hard to understand your eligibility and navigate the requirements. As a result, thousands of Illinoisans are leaving money on the table.

• What’s the Solution?

  A new bill in the state legislature seeks to streamline all of these programs, helping put money where it belongs – back in your pocket. If it passes, this bill will create the state navigator program – a one-stop-shop where you can find the programs, figure out which you qualify for, streamline your application process, and find qualified contractors. This means savings for you sooner, and with less effort. Even better, federal funds can pay for this through 2030.
