At Sustainable Resources Center (SRC), our vision is that all families live in homes that are safe, energy efficient, have clean indoor air, and are free of mold, toxins, pests and excess moisture.
- Our Energy Conservation Program works toward this vision by running the largest deep energy efficiency program for low-income residents in the state. By conducting home energy audits and carrying out major home improvements, SRC substantially increases the energy efficiency of hundreds of homes each year, all at no cost to qualified residents.
- Our Home Energy Savings Program (HESP), a program of Xcel Energy, also replaces hundreds of inefficient household appliances throughout the state every year.
- Our Education & Outreach Team carries out in-home assessments for hazards such as lead paint and works with families to enroll in lead abatement grants, creating safer and healthier homes for our youngest and most vulnerable community members. They also conduct community outreach and free blood lead level testing in schools and at public events.
