Income Qualified Weatherization Program Backed by Duke Energy
About the Program
The Duke Energy Income-Qualified Weatherization Program is a FREE comprehensive weatherization and energy efficiency upgrades program administered by the North Carolina Community Action Association (NCCAA). This program is designed to help income-eligible Duke Energy North and South Carolina customers lower their energy bills and improve the overall energy efficiency of their homes.
