As consumers face rising energy costs ahead of winter in Massachusetts, there are resources people can go to to make sure the heat stays on, even if you're having trouble paying.

Mass Save

Renters, homeowners and small businesses can get a free energy audit done by Mass Save, which will find opportunities for insulation and air sealing.

Incentives are also available through Mass Save for heating system upgrades, weatherization and insulation upgrades, water heaters, programmable thermostats, appliances and more.

The CEO of Eversource has even written a letter to President Biden for some relief, saying he's concerned not just about the steep price increase for consumers, but supply issues that could leave New England without enough electricity this winter.

Some may qualify based on income leaves for help with energy-saving upgrades, like insulation upgrades.
