Evergy presented a portfolio of programs designed to increase energy efficiency for Kansas homes and businesses to the Kansas Corporation Commission in December.
From projects like weather stripping and insulation to installing more energy-efficient appliances, the plan could mean lower energy bills for customers and less power demand during peak times for Evergy.
There would be assistance available for income-eligible consumers. The Climate + Energy Project believes the requirements to qualify will omit customers with too much income for assistance but not enough to pay for the changes that would lower their energy bills.
