Energy Assistance

For some customers, including seniors on fixed incomes, energy expenses can be a financial burden. In fact, there are those right here in our community who cannot afford the energy to meet their basic needs.

For those who cannot afford such an expense, this can lead to difficult decisions bout how to allocate their limited resources. Our local Energy Assistance Program is designed to help income-qualifying households cover their energy costs and reduce the financial burden they face.

If you believe you or someone you know may qualify, we encourage you to establish your income eligibility through the Wisconsin Home Energy Assistance Program (WHEAP). To learn more about the WHEAP application process, customers in Winnebago County should contact Energy Services Inc. at 231-0600. Customers in Outagamie County should contact Energy Services Inc. at 800-506-5596 and Calumet County customers should contact the Calumet County Energy Assistance Program at 849-1400. If approved for WHEAP, you will receive more information about your eligibility for our Energy Assistance Program at that time.

Our Energy Assistance Program is funded with the portion of Public Benefits dollars specifically set aside for income-qualifying individuals and families.
