Some energy efficiency improvements involve little or no implementation cost. There are also improvements that can cost a great deal of money. Installing new windows is another project that, while very beneficial to your home and the environment, can be a financial strain to implement. This is where energy efficiency financing comes in handy.
Financing makes sense for many energy efficiency improvement projects.
The reason is that the improvements you make in your home will reduce your monthly utility bills. In many cases, the amount of the reduction in utility bills will be greater than the loan payment. So, your total monthly expenses go down while you enjoy the benefits of a more energy efficient home. EEMs are loans that cover the cost of energy efficiency upgrades when you purchase a new energy efficient home or remodel an existing home. EEMs are offered by government and private institutions.
