Program FAQs
Will this program impact my rates?
No. This program is funded entirely by money from the state’s Climate Commitment Act, including PUD administration costs.
How will I know if I qualify for a bill credit?
After collecting customers’ information over the next month, the PUD will determine customer eligibility based on their income. Once eligibility is determined, the PUD will send a letter to each customer informing them of the bill credit or future program offerings.
Is there a deadline for qualifying?
Yes. All bill credit funds must be disbursed by Sept. 15, 2024.
Why does the survey ask for more information beyond my income level?
The bill credits are the first of several utility, state, and federal opportunities. Information from this survey will be used to determine eligibility for current and future offerings, so the more information you provide allows to consider you for other programs. We look forward to offering opportunities for no cost/low-cost energy efficiency in the near future and are hoping to use this survey to continue the conversation with qualifying customers.
