1 Current Programs available to Limited Income Customers Residential and Multifamily CAP Program- Residential and Multifamily The City of Austin offers programs to help customers facing temporary and long-term financial difficulties as well as serious medical problems. Customers on low or fixed incomes who receive certain state, federal, and local entitlement programs can benefit from the City of Austin s CAP Discounts program. CAP Discounts can help reduce utility bills an average of $650 a year. Financial Support Plus 1- Residential and Multifamily The Financial Support Plus- 1 fund provides emergency financial help to customers having temporary difficulty paying their utility bills. Funding is distributed by local social service agencies. These agencies screen applicants, determine eligibility, and arrange for funding to be applied to the customer s utility account. Free Thermostat Residential and Multifamily Free programmable thermostat plus free installation and warranty (value $200-$280) is offered to customers who agree to allow Austin Energy to cycle off their air conditioner briefly during peak demand when demand for electricity is highest (June - September). Kill A Watt Watt-meter- Residential and Multifamily Watt-meters are devices that read the amount of electricity used by typical household appliances. They can be plugged into any standard 110 volt electric outlet. To find out how much the electricity used by each appliance, simply plug the appliance into the wattmeter. The watt-meters are available for checkout at Austin Public Libraries have been programmed with the average year round cost of electricity provided by Austin Energy. Customers can scroll through the hour, day, week, month and year to find out how much each device costs to run. Power Saver Volunteers- Residential and Multifamily Customers volunteer to reduce their energy usage during high electric demand days in the summer between 3:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. When notified, customers consider taking the following steps: turn off all unnecessary lights, delay the use of the dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer, use the microwave for cooking instead of using the oven, and adjust the thermostat temperature 2-4 degrees, if possible. Participating customers that sign up as Power Saver Volunteers will receive a weatherization kit in the mail that includes: (one each) Energy Saving CFL Bulb (75 watt), Energy Saving CFL Bulb (65 watt), Adhesive Foam Tape Self Stick Weather-strip (3/8" width x 3/16" height x 17'length), a 20 pack Switch and Outlet Sealers (2 1/2 wide 4" high), and a night light with Austin Energy Logo.
