Electrify Your Home: Plan Ahead

Electrifying homes is one of the most important steps we can take to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and meet essential climate targets. Electrification of any home, whether older or newer, is best approached in stages, with advance planning, so you don't find yourself in an emergency situation where your heating or hot water system fails and you don't have the tools or the time to research electric alternatives. Learn about current technologies and financial incentives, and walk away with a game plan for making your home more climate-friendly at the pace that’s right for you.
