LoginTexas Comprehensive Energy Assistance Program (CEAP)
Program Description
The CEAP addresses the needs of the Texas household in developing goals for self-sufficiency through case management, education and a co-payment utility plan (which financially assists with up to 12 months of utility bills). It provides relief to those low income elderly and/or disabled households most vulnerable to the high cost of energy for home heating and cooling from fluctuations in energy costs by providing financial assistance, paying up to 4 of the highest bills during the year. Furthermore, it provides assistance in an energy-related crisis or during severe weather or supply shortages. Finally, CEAP can replace, repair and/or retrofit inefficient heating and/or cooling systems for eligible applicants.
