Targeted Home Performance with Energy Star ®
This information is from the Focus on Energy website. As a partner with Focus on Energy, Project Home provides all the Targeted Home Performance work for Dane and Green counties. For more information call Focus on Energy or visit This Site.
This program assists qualifying Wisconsin residents in making energy efficiency improvements to their homes. The improvements are completed by program consultants (by Project Home staff if you live in Dane or Green counties) at minimal costs to the homeowner and will make your home more comfortable, safe and energy efficient.
Who is eligible?
Wisconsin residents who receive their natural gas and electricity from participating utilities (you may receive both from one utility), and who meet income requirements, are eligible to participate. In addition, if you are a landlord with qualifying tenants, partial financial grants may be available for your rental property.
To find out if you qualify for this program, review the Income Eligibility Chart and contact Focus on Energy at 800.762.7077 for utility eligibility information.

What improvements may be made?
Qualifying homeowners will receive a no cost home energy evaluation. As part of the evaluation, the program consultant will review the home as an entire system and show you how it is using, and possibly misusing, energy. The consultant will also conduct a safety test to verify that combustion appliances, such as the furnace and hot water heater, are not exhausting carbon monoxide into your home.
Depending on the results of the home energy evaluation, your home may receive one or more of the following energy efficiency improvements:
- Insulation
- Heating and cooling system updates
- Sealing air leaks
- Energy saving products
- Energy Star qualified appliances
