Show Notes
Climate Plus Energy Projects Energy Navigators program, aimed at helping low-income households with utility bills, lost a crucial $400,000 federal grant, leading to layoffs and program shutdown. The program, modeled after health navigators, provided immediate bill relief and long-term energy cost reduction. The utility giant Evergy, however, continues to offer support, helping customers secure bill payments and providing energy-saving tips. The loss of the program highlights the ongoing challenge of funding sustainability initiatives and the need for continued support in addressing energy affordability.
