To be eligible, you must meet at least one of the following requirements:

- You must provide proof of participation in the New Jersey SHARES (NJ SHARES) federal/safety net partnership program.
- Your household income is above 250% and below 400% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines (see 2024 Income Guidelines below). If you are below the income requirement, you may be eligible in Comfort Partners. If you are above the income requirement, you may be interested in our Quick Home Energy Check-up or Home Performance with ENERGY STAR® programs.
You also must be a current residential PSE&G customer with a valid account number, and you must be living in a building with one to three units (home, apartment, townhouse, etc.) that are individually metered. Homes that are zero to five years old or under builder’s warranty are excluded, as are homes in foreclosure. If you don’t own your residence but would still like to participate in the program, you must have the property owner’s permission to do so. If you’re still uncertain about your eligibility, use our Home Energy Assessment Tool or call 1-855-846-2895 to find out if Home Weatherization is right for you.
