City of Maryville Electric and TVA EnergyRight® Partner to Offer Home Uplift to the Community6/29/2021 Qualifying homeowners can receive free home energy upgrades
City of Maryville electric announced a new partnership with TVA EnergyRight® to offer the Home Uplift program to 26 income-qualified homeowners in the Maryville/ Blount County community. Through Home Uplift, participating homeowners can receive free home energy upgrades that increase the energy efficiency and comfort of their homes while lowering their energy bills. In addition to receiving energy upgrades installed by a member of the TVA-trained Quality Contractor Network, Home Uplift participants also receive energy education focused on empowering homeowners to take control of their energy use through low-cost and no-cost energy-saving techniques. Qualifying households must meet federal Weatherization Assistance Program income requirements (200% of the federal poverty level or below), undergo an energy audit, be the primary account holder of active electrical service for one year, and own and occupy their home or live in a home owned by a partnering housing authority.

Applications will be available by calling 888-986-7262 or emailing [email protected].
