Home Energy Evaluation Program
Do you avoid certain areas of your home because they’re too hot or cold? The Home Energy Evaluation (previously Home Retrofit and Home Energy Assessment) program can help you identify ways to save energy and money, all while improving your home's comfort.
Start by choosing either an Introductory Energy Assessment or Comprehensive Home Energy Audit. Then, reach out to a participating contractor to schedule your appointment. The contractor may install simple measures like LED bulbs and water heater pipe insulation. After your appointment, you will receive a report with cost-effective options and easy-to-follow recommendations to make your home more energy-efficient.
Hear what customers are saying: "I felt like the program was beneficial because it provided a little relief. Updating anything in the house can get very expensive, so these programs are a great way to allow people to make the appropriate updates. I felt the program was easy to participate [in] once I found out about [it]. I would recommend others to the program. In fact, I’ve already passed on information to at least two of my neighbors." - Eric, a Dominion Energy Customer

Participants help Dominion Energy manage higher energy demand by allowing specific, short-term adjustments to your HVAC system via your wi-fi thermostat. In most cases, you won’t notice adjustments to your home’s HVAC system, or your comfort. And you’ll always have ultimate control.
Customers do not have to purchase a smart thermostat through the Dominion Energy program to participate in this program.

Heat Pump Water Heaters
The Water Energy Savings program offers a rebate up to $400 off the purchase of a new connected heat pump water heater that meets ENERGY STAR performance requirements.
Heat pump water heaters move heat from one place to another using electricity, instead of generating heat directly. Due to this design, heat pump water heaters can be up to two to three times more energy efficient than conventional electric resistance water heaters.
