Energy In Your Home

Energy Programs

Blue Grass Energy is involved in a variety of programs promoting energy efficiency. These programs are continuously revised to better serve you.

Programs include:

Touchstone Energy Home: Combine the efficiency of electric heating and cooling with high insulation standards when building a new home, and you have the basis for the Touchstone Energy Home. The home, which meets Energy Star® standards, exceeds the 2004 International Energy Conservation Code by more than 15 percent. Blue Grass Energy provides home testing and computer analysis at no charge to the member -- a $500 value.

Energy Efficiency Improvements (EEI): This program identifies concerns within the envelope of the home and provides you with informational fliers recommending energy efficiency improvements. An energy advisor will come to your home and make recommendations that may qualify you for rebates up to $350.

Blue Grass Energy members may receive up to $200 for energy efficiency improvements, which include adding insulation, replacing windows, air sealing, and/or making insulation more effective. Your home must be at least 2 years old and electrically heated to qualify for this rebate.

Member may also receive $150 for sealing duct work. (Member may do the work or hire a contractor. Energy advisor will have to perform a blower door test before and after duct sealing).

All rebates are for electrically heated homes only.
