Focus On Energy Celebrates 20 Years

Wisconsin’s Focus on Energy program is celebrating its 20^th anniversary. The program has been around since 2001, and has been working to deliver energy efficiency and renewable energy programs to residents and businesses in the state.

Erinn Monroe-Nye is the Program Director for Focus on Energy, she tells KFIZ News that their work over the past decade has led to a good deal of benefits for the state.

“Since 2016, we’ve paid about two hundred fifty million in incentives to customers to help them afford more energy-efficient technology. They’ve actually studied the program and have determined that for every dollar that you invest in the Focus on Energy program, it returns about $4.80 in benefits. And those benefits include energy savings on your bills.”

Monroe-Nye says other benefits include a reduction in emissions and even economic development opportunities for workers who install and upgrade energy systems and equipment. Find out more at focusonenergy.com.
