Residential Overview

Focus on Energy’s Residential Programs deliver cost-effective energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions to Wisconsin single family homes, and multifamily buildings. The wide variety of program offerings reach customers through incentives, energy audits, direct install measures, and product buy-downs that save energy and raise awareness about Wisconsin’s energy conservation and renewable energy needs.

Our Residential Programs show Wisconsin residents how to lower their costs of living by being more energy efficient. Whether they're switching to ENERGY STAR® qualified compact fluorescent light bulbs or building an efficient house - these efforts are paying off. Since the beginning of the program, Wisconsin residents saved over $70 million in energy costs by making simple lifestyle changes.
