Our Residential Programs show Wisconsin residents how to reduce their carbon footprints and lower their costs of living by being more energy efficient. Whether they're switching to ENERGY STAR^® qualified compact fluorescent light bulbs or building a Wisconsin ENERGY STAR Home - these efforts are really paying off. Last year alone, Wisconsin residents saved approximately $10 million in energy costs by making simple lifestyle changes.

Once you've improved the energy efficiency of your home, Focus can help you take the next step to renewable energy. It's important to maximize your efficiency first. For every dollar you spend on energy efficiency, you will save three dollars on the cost of a renewable energy system.
