The North Shore Gas Energy Efficiency Program provides energy-saving
offerings specially designed for income eligible customers to help improve energy efficiency,
home comfort and building safety.
Some offerings allow customers to take control of their own energy costs at home,
while others are designed for property owners, managers and developers.
Multi-Family Income Eligible
Building owners and managers whose buildings are designated as income eligible
may qualify for comprehensive energy efficiency retrofits in common areas and
tenant spaces. Improvements may include free weatherization, Energy Star certified
LEDs, programmable thermostats, advanced power strips, boiler tuneups and more.
