BayREN EASE Home Program
Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayREN)
About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs BayREN EASE Home Program in its San Jose, CA research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
BayREN's Efficiency and Sustainable Energy (EASE) Home Program serves moderate-income Bay Area homeowners who earn too much for fully subsidized programs but need help affording energy upgrades. With a customer co-pay capped at 20% of project cost, EASE covers weatherization (insulation, duct sealing) and leverages Inflation Reduction Act rebates to cover at least 50% of eligible electric appliance costs. A complimentary site visit begins the process.
