Weatherization Assistance Program
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) reduces energy costs for low-income households by increasing the energy efficiency of their homes, while ensuring their health and safety. The program supports
8,500 jobs
and provides weatherization services to approximately
32,000 homes
every year using DOE funds.
Through weatherization improvements and upgrades, these households save on average
$372 or more every year
according to a national evaluation of the program. Since the program began in 1976, WAP has helped improve the lives of more than 7.2 million families through weatherization services.
