Duke Energy helping customers with energy costs in West Terre Haute
WEST TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV) — If you are paying too much on your energy bill, Duke Energy's Assistance Program could be for you.
The program is currently helping residents in West Terre Haute.
Duke Energy Program Manager Andy Downey said it finds areas that are low-income and high energy usage and provides a number of measures to help energy costs.
'The first one is what we call our 1.0 measures', Downey said. 'That is going to be your door sweeps, weather strip kits on doors, a year supply of furnace filters, and a few others. It is up to 16 measures that we offer on that 1.0.'
Some residents qualify for the set of 2.0 measures.
'If they're what we deem as a high energy user, then they qualify for what we call 2.0 measures', Downey said. 'That is going to be a crew that will come in for attic insulation, air sealing, duct sealing, or smart thermostats, depending on what the home needs.'
West Vigo Community Center President David Elkins is known by many in the local community, so he has teamed up with Duke Energy to connect residents in need.
'I go out with them and talk with the residents because they know my face a little bit around town, so it's easier for them to go to the door if I'm there and talk with them', Elkins said. 'I'm just a familiar face.'
Elkins said he has a specific goal for West Terre Haute.
'I'm trying to get 80% of the community to get involved with it', Elkins said. 'That is the community center's goal to help both Duke and our community.'
If you are a local resident and want to see if you qualify for Duke Energy's Assistance Program, you can call 855-227-2940 to learn more information and schedule an appointment.
