The Energy Savings Program (ESP), delivered through the Alabama Resiliency Fund, helps eligible Alabama families make their homes more comfortable and energy-efficient — at no cost.
Through ESP, households can receive weatherization upgrades like insulation, air sealing, smart thermostats, and other improvements that help keep homes cooler in summer, warmer in winter, and more affordable year-round.
Getting started is simple:
- Check eligibility: Enter your address online to see if the program is available in your area and complete a short application.
- Home energy assessment: If approved, a trained technician will schedule an in-home visit to evaluate how air, heat, and cooling move through your home. They’ll identify opportunities to improve efficiency and comfort.
- Immediate improvements: During the visit, technicians may install simple upgrades on the spot — such as LED lighting or water-saving devices — with your permission.
- Weatherization upgrades: Based on the assessment, additional improvements may be recommended, such as sealing air leaks, adding insulation, or improving heating and cooling systems. These upgrades are completed by qualified program contractors at no cost to you.
- Quality assurance: Homes receive follow-up inspections to ensure all work meets program standards and delivers expected energy savings.
Why It Matters
For many families, small inefficiencies at home can quietly add up to higher energy costs.
By improving comfort and lowering energy use, the Energy Savings Program helps households reduce energy bills, improve home performance, and create healthier living environments — one home at a time.
