Complete the Affordable Home Electrification Program (AHEP) Multifamily Tenant Qualification Form

You’re receiving this form because your building owner has applied to the Affordable Home Electrification Program (AHEP) for multifamily buildings, administered by the DC Sustainable Energy Utility (DCSEU). Participation in this program is free for qualifying building owners and tenants.

This program helps affordable communities and homes electrify and make the switch from gas heating, water heating, cooking, and clothes drying equipment. Making the switch will help reduce emissions, increase your home’s comfort, and improve the air quality in your building. You can also build on these benefits with solar energy credits through the District's Solar for All program to keep your electricity bills manageable. To learn more about this optional bonus program, visit solarforall.doee.dc.gov.

To qualify your building for AHEP, the DCSEU is required to collect your permission and documentation to verify your identity, income, and current utility costs. Note that while funding for AHEP for multifamily buildings is limited for Fiscal Year 2026 (October 1, 2025 – September 30, 2025), DCSEU is continuing to accept applications and income qualify buildings. All new applications will be placed on a waitlist until further notice and will move forward as additional funding becomes available.

Your submission will be reviewed to confirm income eligibility and ensure that all required documentation has been provided. You will be notified of your eligibility status within 30 days of submission.

Please follow the instructions below and complete the form.
