BUILDING A CLEANER FUTURE Energy efficient choices may appear to be insignificant, but each one leads to a much bigger impact. Over a million consumers and thousands of businesses have joined our efforts, allowing for incredible results. Watch this video to learn how the savings from New Jersey's Clean Energy Program are adding up, all contributing to making our State a healthier and safer place to live and work! |
HELP FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
Sometimes, the biggest challenge to improving energy efficiency is knowing where to start. This should help motivate you - small businesses can pay just 30% of the cost of equipment upgrades, with New Jersey's Clean Energy Program picking up the remaining cost. Sound like a good deal? It is! Direct Install is a turnkey solution that makes it easy and affordable to upgrade to high efficiency equipment and cut energy costs by replacing lighting, HVAC and other outdated equipment with energy efficient alternatives. In fact, the Direct Install Program has helped over 7,500 customers (small businesses, local governments, non-profits) in New Jersey, providing over $160,000,000 in incentives and helping them to save money on energy for years to come. |
TESTIMONIAL: ONE ON ONE WITH DAN With the frigid temperatures last month, did you notice some rooms in your house were colder than others? Dan's home had a very noticeable difference in temperature on certain levels - the second floor was much colder in the winter and much hotter in the summer than the first floor. Dan knew he probably needed more insulation and likely some air sealing for his 50-year-old home, and decided that a home energy audit was the best place to start. Dan says "The Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® Program is nothing short of amazing. To be able to upgrade my home to be more comfortable and energy efficient while receiving a $3,000 financial incentive from the State of New Jersey is a win-win for everyone involved. I don't know why everyone isn't taking advantage of this program!". Read more about this project. |

SMART THERMOSTATS
A smart thermostat helps make it easy for you to save by offering pre-programmed settings to regulate your home's temperature in both winter and summer - when you are home, asleep, or away. Depending on your family's schedule, you can see significant savings by sticking with those settings or adjust them as appropriate for your family.
How Do You Choose the Right One To decide which model is best for you, think about your schedule and how often you are away from home for regular periods of time - work, school, other activities - and then decide which of the three different models best fits your schedule: the 7-day, 5+2-day, or the 5-1-1-day. - 7-day models are best if your daily schedule tends to change, for example, if children are at home earlier on some days. They give you the most flexibility, and let you set different programs for different days - usually with four possible temperature periods per day.
- 5+2-day models use the same schedule every weekday, and another for weekends.
- 5-1-1 models are best if you tend to keep one schedule Monday through Friday and another schedule on Saturdays and Sundays.
This video from ENERGY STAR can show you how to decide which model is right for you, and how to install and program it. You can save up to $180 per year on your utility bill! Set & Save. It's Simple!
