The U.S. Department of Energy administers the Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) as authorized by Title IV, Energy Conservation and Production Act, as amended. The goal of WAP is to increase the energy efficiency of dwellings owned or occupied by low-income persons, reduce their total residential expenditures, and improve their health and safety.

DOE anticipates making approximately 58 formula-based awards under the Fiscal Year 2017 WAP to States, Territories, and the District of Columbia (hereinafter "States"). The total amount of DOE funding is not finalized at this time. Each home weatherized under WAP would receive approximately $6,500 as determined by the site-specific outcomes of the energy audit process.
