What are Citizens Energy heat assistance programs?
Citizens Energy heat assistance programs help low-income people who cannot afford to pay their heating bills. Citizens Energy has a program for people who use heating oil, and a program for people who heat with natural gas.
-
The Citizens Energy Oil Heat Program offers free heating oil to people in need. Each eligible household is allowed a one-time delivery per heating season of 100 gallons of home heating oil for free. The Oil Heat Program is a joint effort between Citizens Energy Corporation, CITGO Petroleum, Massachusetts fuel oil dealers, fuel assistance agencies, and the MASSCAP Directors Association.
-
The Citizens Energy / Distrigas Heat Assistance Program gives a $150 utility bill credit to eligible households who heat with natural gas. The program is run by Citizens Energy and funded by Distrigas.
Citizens Energy Corporation is a non-profit company started by Joseph P. Kennedy II in 1979. The Citizens Energy heat assistance programs have helped thousands of low-income and elderly families in Massachusetts.
