The City of Houston has the ability to offer REEP through a $23 million grant from the Department of Energy. We are currently taking applications from Houstonians who meet the income guidelines listed in the table below. REEP is designed to reduce energy consumption for Houstonians by installing energy efficiency upgrades; such as, weather-stripping, caulking, wall and attic insulation, air conditioners, refrigerators, solar screens and more. The efficiency upgrades are based on an assessment of what your home needs to make it more energy efficient. All of this is done at no cost to homeowners. If you rent your home, you may also apply with the consent of your landlord. We expect to weatherize approximately 10,000 homes by the end of 2011.
