Home Electrification

Home Electrification

 

Many California homeowners are electrifying their homes and replacing gas appliances and systems that use fossil fuel. Not only is home electrification better for the environment, but many upgrades will run more efficiently, saving you money on operating costs. With more and more municipalities in the state passing natural gas bans, it’s smart to get ahead of the curve and go green at home now, so you can:

  • Eliminate fossil fuel use
  • Lower your home’s carbon footprint and reduce greenhouse gas emissions
  • Save money with greater energy efficiency
  • Take advantage of any local utility rebates and incentives
  • Maximize the benefits of solar panel installation

It can be challenging to find the right contractor to handle most of your home electrification upgrades and green living projects. Still, with the Clean Energy Connection, you can quickly find qualified contractors that can handle all your electrification projects.
