Home Performance with ENERGY STAR®

Want to Save Up To $700 on Your Energy Bills and Make Your Home Safer and More Comfortable*?

Most New Yorkers qualify for a FREE or reduced cost comprehensive home assessment, also referred to as an energy audit, and low-cost financing through Home Performance with ENERGY STAR**. Find out how to participate.

Join the thousands of  New York homeowners who have made energy efficiency improvements to their homes following home assessment and significantly reduced their home energy bills. These homeowners enjoy benefits such as increased energy efficiency, fewer drafts, consistent temperatures throughout rooms, increased ventilation and humidity control and lower utility bills.

Take advantage of low-interest loans and cash-back incentives for the energy efficiency improvements. 

What is the Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program?

Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Program uses a network of independent home improvement contractors, accredited by the Building Performance Institute (BPI). BPI, a national resource for building science technology sets standards for assessing and improving the energy performance of homes.

Each participating contractor is trained to identify energy efficiency improvements and to test homes using a ‘whole-house’ approach. From the initial visit to your home, to installation of energy efficiency work through to project completion, Home Performance with ENERGY STAR is a “one-stop shop” process. Homeowners learn where their home is wasting energy and know what to expect from their contractors and how to obtain additional information about moving forward.

*Actual savings may vary based upon efficiency measures selected, age of home, appliances, equipment and other factors. A participating contractor can help evaluate potential savings.

**Financing, energy audits, and workforce development opportunities made available through the Green Jobs-Green NY Act of 2009.
