Empowering Lake & Klamath Counties Through Partnership: Energy Trust of Oregon Fuels a Sustainable Future
We are thrilled to talk about a powerful partnership that is driving positive change in Lake and Klamath Counties! Lake County Resources Initiative (LCRI) is proud to be in partnership with Energy Trust of Oregon, a committed funder supporting our residential, agricultural, and commercial/business energy efficiency programs.
Residential Energy Efficiency
Thanks to the generous support from Energy Trust of Oregon, LCRI is making significant strides in enhancing residential energy efficiency. From providing resources for home weatherization to promoting energy-efficient technologies, we're dedicated to creating comfortable, cost-effective, and sustainable living spaces for Lake and Klamath County residents.
Home Energy Assessment Steps:
Get in contact with Lake County Resources Initiative to schedule a No-Cost, 30 minute Home Energy Assessment with one of our Energy Assessors, Please call (541) 947-5461 or email us at energy.programs@.lcri.org
Make note in your calendar of when the assessment is to take place. We will need to look at your water heater, heating & cooling, attic and crawlspace, so make sure they are accessible.
Prepare for Assessment Appointment
On the date & time agreed on, the energy assessor will come to your home and conduct the assessment. They will discuss your energy systems and incentive opportunities. Please ensure that systems are accessible.
Complete Home Energy Assessment
We will send the assessment to Energy Trust of Oregon, who will have the final say in whether we may pursue projects. After we hear back, we will give you a call. At maximum it should take us 4-6 weeks to give you an update. If you don’t hear from us, give us a call to follow up.
Sit tight and wait for a follow up call
When we call you, we will let you know what projects you are eligible to pursue. The 60% SMI is the cap for our ETO No-Cost programs, however, you may still qualify for some standard incentives. Our attic and floor insulation incentives are not income qualifying.

Agricultural Innovation
Local farmers and ranchers are vital to the region's prosperity. With Energy Trust of Oregon's funding, LCRI is connecting the funding dots for agricultural producers to pursue sustainable agricultural practices. From optimizing irrigation systems to promoting renewable energy adoption on farms, we are working towards a more resilient agricultural sector.
Commercial Energy Solutions
LCRI understands the importance of supporting local businesses in their journey towards energy efficiency. Energy Trust of Oregon enables us to offer tailored solutions for commercial enterprises. Together, we are working on strategizing how best to serve the businesses and communities we exist in, and working on locating funding to update the buildings in which our community members operate their businesses out of.
