Utility & Energy Costs

Operation Fuel provides emergency assistance to Connecticut residents struggling to pay energy and utility bills, and advocates for energy affordability.

You Can Help

This is the best run energy assistance program anywhere. The staff is outstanding! I not only add a dollar every month to my Eversource bill, but I also make donations above and beyond. There is no other local nonprofit that I have more confidence in than OpFuel.

To have Operation Fuel come in was a god-send. They prevented shutoffs. No one wants that.

Shared Clean Energy Facility Program

Shared Clean Energy Facility (SCEF) Projects provide locally generated, renewable, low-carbon clean energy.
