How to Apply for Energy Assistance
The primary goal of Energy Assistance is to keep households warm and safe during the winter months . The Energy Division helps income-eligible people who have difficulty paying the cost of heating their homes by providing vendor payments for their home heating. Energy Assistance staff also determines how its services can be utilized to lower their clients’ energy costs. Income guidelines change yearly and are based on the state/national poverty level.
All applicants must apply in person. An outreach visit is available for the homebound elderly or physically disabled. Along with offices located in Waterbury, Meriden and Torrington, intake sites are located in a number of towns. Applicants for Energy Assistance are required to provide the following information:
Proof of income for all household members for the four weeks immediately prior to the application date including bank statements (all pages required).
If the primary heating source is a utility, a copy of the utility bill must be presented.
Renters must show copies of their rent receipts or lease.
Homeowners must provide a copy of their mortgage.
Documentation of liquid assets is required.
Payments will be made directly to the heating vendor on the household’s behalf.
