Energy-saving products available to program-eligible
More than 1,800 Dominion Energy customers in the Eau Claire community of Columbia are eligible for free energy-saving products and services. The company recently hosted a kickoff event to introduce qualifying residents to the Neighborhood Energy Efficiency Program (NEEP), which offers home assessments, on-site education and installation of energy efficient products to incomeeligible customers.
Customers began receiving information on how to participate in early August, with installations in homes beginning the same month and continuing through September. Dominion Energy representatives will complete installations at no cost.
“The Neighborhood Energy Efficiency Program aims not only to achieve energy savings, but also to educate customers on how to
become more energy efficient and foster long-term savings,” said Derek McDaniel, who manages the program. “Eliminating cost barriers and providing free energy assessments and upgrades play a big
role in helping create energyefficient homes.”
Since its launch in 2013, NEEP has helped Dominion Energy customers across the state reduce electricity usage through direct-install improvements and energy education. Over the past decade, customers have saved enough electricity to power approximately 112,000 homes for a year.
Dominion Energy offers a comprehensive portfolio of EnergyWise programs that work together to increase overall energy efficiency and reduce energy usage. For more information about these programs, visit DominionEnergy. com or call at 877-510-7234.
