WHAT WE DOWeatherization Assistance ProgramWEC operates as a sub-grantee of the State of Wyoming in the Weatherization Assistance Program. Over 3,000 low-income households have received weatherization assistance services from WEC in Albany, Laramie, Carbon, Johnson, Sheridan, Teton, Sublette, and Lincoln Counties and the Shoshone portion of the Wind River Reservation. WEC’s staff of three full-time and two part-time office professionals support, document, and verify performance for a crew of 15 that performs energy audits, energy-efficient retrofit work, and quality assurance for weatherization jobs. WEC has consistently fulfilled the requirements on time and on budget for all contracts using State of Wyoming, U.S. Health and Human Services Low-Income Energy Assistance Program, and U.S. Department of Energy Weatherization Assistance Program funds. In addition, WEC has been approved for special programs to perform health and safety-related replacement of furnaces and water heaters for eligible clients in both the City of Cheyenne and Albany County. These replacements leverage and extend the weatherization funds used on low-income housing. With the additional funds, WEC is able to provide a greater scope and more holistic solution to energy situations in low-income homes. Learn more visit the Weatherization page.

Wyoming Low Income Energy Assistance ProgramThe purpose of the LIEAP program is to help low income families pay their utility billings during the winter months. The priority families are the elderly (60+), those with disabilities, and households with children under the age of 6. LIEAP is only able to assist households with their primary heat source. LIEAP will assist with propane, wood, coal, pellets, gas, or electric. WEC is currently accepting applications for data entry professionals in the Laramie headquarters to fulfill this obligation.
