Summary

Midwest Energy offers its residential and small commercial electricity and natural gas customers in good standing a way to finance energy efficiency improvements on eligible properties. Under the How$mart on-bill financing program, the utility will pay the initial cost of making energy efficiency improvements, then recoup the cost of these improvements through a surcharge on the customer's bill. The surcharge is estimated to be less than the energy savings associated with the improvements. It allows customers to make efficiency improvements with no up-front costs. 

In order to participate in the program, customers must first have an energy audit performed by a Midwest Energy specialist. The audit will identify cost-effective improvements which the customer may then have completed by a participating contractor. The audit will be free of charge if the customer participates in the program. Customers who elect not to participate may be charged for the audit.
