The City of Palo Alto Utilities (CPAU) has developed a FREE Residential Energy Assistance Program (REAP) to lend a helping hand to our low-income residents. REAP enables low income residents to permanently reduce their energy and water costs by improving their home's energy efficiency. Our Energy Specialist will visit your home and complete a free Home Energy Analysis to identify what changes can be made to improve efficiency and reduce utility costs. Qualified participants may be eligible to receive the installation of the following items ABSOLUTELY FREE OF CHARGE: weather stripping, window caulking, attic insulation, showerheads, faucet aerators, compact fluorescent lighting, and more.
