What is the intent of HomeESP?
What began as a discussion between two friends about energy conservation and savings became: how can we help everyday American homeowners spend less and enjoy their homes more? There are so many ways that money flows out of our monthly budgets; lights, heat, home maintenance, decorating and shopping. We wanted to create a community that helped one another slow the flow? Make better investments in your home's infrastructure? Reduce waste without changing your lifestyle? We want HomeESP to be the smarter way to save and enjoy your home.

What is the Blackout Protection Benefit?
HomeESP will pay $50 per 24-hour period, for up to three days (up to $150) per calendar year, for any loss of utility-supplied electricity to your home. The benefit begins 12 hours after the initial loss of power. You can use this money for any purpose, such expenses you incur during a loss of power, including food, hotel, transportation or shopping. The loss of power can be due to any natural cause or failure of the utility provider to maintain power supply to your residence. It does not cover loss of power from solar panels or wind generation on your property, construction at the residence or on your property, or other on-premises cause of failure, suspension of service by the utility due to administrative error or for non-payment of bills, or negligence, abuse or damage to power infrastructure by the HomeESP Member.
How do I claim my Blackout Protection Benefit?
Complete and send HomeESP the Blackout Protection Claim Form describing the power outage, day and time it started, and day and time power was restored. You also must provide a copy of the utility bill(s) corresponding with the dates of the blackout. You also must provide a receipt or receipts of out of pocket costs you incurred because of this power outage. HomeESP will research your claim and make a decision on payment.
