The NYSERDA EmPower+ program is a New York State initiative that helps income-eligible homeowners, renters, and landlords of 1-to-4 family homes reduce energy costs and improve home comfort. It offers free home energy assessments and financial incentives for energy-efficient upgrades like insulation, air sealing, and high-efficiency heating systems. As a NYSERDA EmPower+ Participating Contractor, we guide you through the process from start to finish.
Eligibility is based on household income and home type. The program is open to:
- Homeowners, renters, and landlords of 1-to-4 family homes in New York State.
- Households meeting specific income guidelines (we’ll help you verify this).
- Both single-family homes and small multifamily properties qualify.
Contact us to check your eligibility—we’ll walk you through the requirements and handle the paperwork to make it easy.
Our certified energy auditors will visit your home to evaluate its energy performance. During the assessment, we’ll:
- Inspect insulation levels in your attic, walls, and basement.
- Check for air leaks around windows, doors, and other areas.
- Evaluate your heating and cooling systems for efficiency.
- Assess lighting, appliances, and ventilation.
The process is non-invasive, takes about 1-2 hours, and is completely free for eligible households. Afterward, you’ll receive a detailed report with customized recommendations for energy-saving upgrades.
The EmPower+ program provides incentives for a range of energy-efficient improvements, including:
- Insulation and Air Sealing: To reduce drafts and improve comfort.
- High-Efficiency Heating and Cooling: Such as furnaces, boilers, or heat pumps.
- Energy-Efficient Windows: To minimize heat loss and noise.
- Ventilation Systems: To improve indoor air quality and prevent mold.
- LED Lighting and ENERGY STAR® Appliances: To lower electricity use.
The specific upgrades recommended will depend on your home’s needs, as identified during the energy assessment.
Savings vary based on your home’s condition and the upgrades installed, but many households see energy bill reductions of 20-30% or more. For example, adding insulation and sealing air leaks can significantly lower heating costs in [Your Local Area]’s cold winters, while efficient lighting and appliances reduce electricity expenses year-round.
For income-eligible households, many upgrades are fully covered by NYSERDA incentives, meaning no out-of-pocket costs. If additional work is needed beyond what incentives cover, we’ll provide a transparent cost breakdown and discuss affordable financing options, if available. After your assessment, we’ll give you a clear picture of costs and incentives.
The timeline depends on the scope of your project, but here’s a general overview:
- Eligibility Check: 1-2 days to confirm with our team.
- Energy Assessment: Scheduled within a week, takes 1-2 hours.
- Incentive Approval: Typically 1-2 weeks, depending on NYSERDA processing.
- Installation: Most projects take 1-3 days, with minimal disruption.
We’ll keep you informed at every step and work around your schedule.
Yes! Renters in 1-to-4 family homes can participate, but you’ll need your landlord’s permission for certain upgrades. We can coordinate with your landlord to ensure everyone is on the same page, and the program’s incentives can benefit both renters (lower energy bills) and landlords (increased property value).
