Program details

How it works

The Home Energy Assistance (HEA) Program is a statewide utility program delivered through NHSaves. It serves income-eligible homeowners and renters and is designed to reduce energy costs, improve home energy performance, and make homes safer, healthier, and more comfortable.

What the program covers

The official NHSaves page says the program covers 100% of the cost to weatherize homes of income-eligible homeowners and renters and to replace inefficient equipment. The broader NHSaves weatherization page describes the related Home Energy Performance offering as a whole-house efficiency program and says the utility partners provide incentives and technical support for weatherization and related improvements.

How it works

The program directs applicants to contact the Community Action Agency in their county to get qualified. NHSaves says the program is funded by electric and natural gas ratepayers and delivered by Eversource, Liberty Utilities, New Hampshire Electric Cooperative, and Unitil.

Why this is relevant to home hardening

This is not a wildfire-specific grant, but it is the clearest statewide home-improvement assistance program currently documented on an official page. It pays for weatherization and equipment replacement, which can indirectly support resilience and loss reduction for some homes.
