HomeWise
Structured For Success
Here’s how we reach out to residential utility customers and introduce them to the whole-house approach:
- Engage them with kits comprised of efficiency measures they can perform on their own
- Encourage them to take their utility’s energy survey to learn more about how their home uses energy
- Promote whole-house retrofit incentives available from utilities, cities, agencies and other sources
- Introduce additional ways to save through energy-efficiency improvements and programs
- Direct them to the program or utility website to take a pledge to become “HomeWise” about their energy use and learn how they compare to others in their community
- Inform customers about certified contractors
- Implement an ongoing engagement strategy that rewards customers for making energy upgrade improvements to their home
- Track installation activities and behavior changes via a customized website platform
Leaders in turning whole-house thinking into action.
Help your customers see their homes in a whole new light, as a comprehensive system that, if upgraded properly, can provide them with exceptional energy efficiency and substantial monthly savings.
HomeWise is a proven measure-based education program, designed to engage customers in this conversation, move them through the decision-making process and provide them with specific energy-saving actions along the way.
