\nBiwo Pwogram En\u00e8ji Kay<\/h2>\n
Energy assistance programs can help offset some of the cost of your electric bill. There are several types of programs available from the Office of Home Energy Programs (OHEP).<\/p>\n
The income-eligible grant application requires you to select a program, so learn about the options.<\/p>\n
Pwogram Asistans En\u00e8ji Maryland (MEAP)<\/h3>\n
Si ou\u00a0chofe kay ou ak elektrisite,<\/a>\u00a0you may be eligible for the\u00a0Maryland Energy Assistance Program\u00a0or MEAP grant.<\/p>\n Ou ka aplike menm si ou gen yon avi f\u00e8men oswa f\u00e8men nan konpayi s\u00e8vis piblik la.<\/p>\n\t Ou ka jwenn \u00e8d nan Pwogram S\u00e8vis Iniv\u00e8s\u00e8l Elektrik (EUSP) pou b\u00f2dwo elektrik yo. Kliyan ki elijib yo jwenn asistans finansye ak yon pati nan b\u00f2dwo elektrik akty\u00e8l yo. Lajan an peye dir\u00e8kteman nan konpayi elektrik la.<\/p>\n Kidonk, ki jan ou kalifye pou sibvansyon EUSP la? Sa depann de revni lakay ou ak itilizasyon elektrik ou pandan 12 d\u00e8nye mwa yo.<\/p>\n Kliyan EUSP yo tou sou yon plan b\u00f2dwo bidj\u00e8 ki pwopaje depans s\u00e8vis piblik chak ane sou yon ane. Nan fason sa a, ou peye yon kantite menm jan an chak mwa olye ke siyifikativman plis soti nan yon mwa oswa sezon nan pwochen an.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Arrearage Retirement Assistance\u00a0(ARA) grant can help if you have a past-due electric or gas bill over $300. You only\u00a0kalifye pou sa yon fwa chak s\u00e8t ane<\/u>, ak s\u00e8ten eksepsyon. Sibvansyon sa a ofri jiska $2,000 pou yon b\u00f2dwo s\u00e8vis piblik ki sot pase.<\/p>\n Pou jwenn yon sibvansyon ARA, ou dwe kalifye pou yon sibvansyon EUSP.<\/p>\n Before you apply for one of these OHEP programs<\/a>, understand the guidelines and application process. You’ll need several documents verifying your identity, residency, and income.<\/p>\n Ready to apply for energy help? Make sure you understand how the OHEP application works, common mistakes and all the documents you’ll need to upload if you apply online. Read 211’s utility assistance application guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n Si w pare pou ranpli yon aplikasyon sou ent\u00e8n\u00e8t,\u00a0k\u00f2manse kounye a<\/a>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t Jwenn resous kominot\u00e8 yo <\/strong>pou manje, swen sante, lojman ak plis ank\u00f2 nan baz done nou an. Ch\u00e8che pa k\u00f2d postal.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCh\u00e8che Kounye a\n\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t Utility companies like BGE, Pepco, SMECO, and other Maryland utilities offer programs to help customers pay their bills and avoid a turn off notice.<\/p>\n Menmsi konpayi s\u00e8vis piblik la f\u00e8 w konnen y ap f\u00e8men kouran w, ou ka toujou aplike pou asistans atrav\u00e8 OHEP. Sonje byen, gen kalifikasyon revni.<\/p>\n Si sibvansyon an pa kouvri tout kantite b\u00f2dwo ou anl\u00e8, ou ka anmezi\u00a0jwenn asistans finansye nan men yon l\u00f2t \u00f2ganizasyon<\/a>.<\/p>\n Yon plan peman 12 mwa se tou yon opsyon. Mete sa a dir\u00e8kteman ak konpayi s\u00e8vis piblik ou a.<\/p>\n Toujou kontakte konpayi s\u00e8vis piblik ou a l\u00e8 w bezwen plis asistans ak b\u00f2dwo w la pou w w\u00e8 ki opsyon ki disponib nan z\u00f2n ou an.<\/p>\n Si w bezwen \u00e8d pou peye b\u00f2dwo s\u00e8vis piblik ou nan men yon l\u00f2t konpayi, kontakte yo dir\u00e8kteman:<\/p>\n 211 Maryland disponib tou 24\/7\/365 pou gide ou atrav\u00e8 asistans s\u00e8vis piblik pou b\u00f2dwo elektrik ou.
