Technical Assistance

Need help exploring energy-efficiency options?

We realize that although many customers may want to take advantage of energy-efficient alternatives, it can be difficult to allocate the time and resources necessary to evaluate the many options available today. New Jersey SmartStart Buildings can help you explore design and equipment options by providing no-cost technical assistance for projects under 50,000 sq. ft. of conditioned space. This assistance may include:

  • Plan review and analysis of energy-efficiency options
  • Consultation on selecting and specifying energy-efficiency measures
  • Basic design assistance (small new construction and/or remodeling)
  • Basic measure/system/project analysis and recommendations
  • Assistance with incentive applications and program compliance

Up to eight hours of technical assistance per project may be available.

Begin the Technical Assistance process by submitting an Application Form early in your construction/equipment selection process.
