How Do New Jersey Home Performance with ENERGY STAR Incentives Work?

Incentives are based upon the projected energy savings of the upgrades installed in your home.

The program uses software that pairs a home's construction, energy usage, and other variables against a variety of upgrades that, when installed, will lower a home's energy consumption.

The more we can save on your utility bills, the more cash-back incentives you qualify for!
