The Niagara Emergency Energy Fund helps with energy related emergencies.
The fund provides assistance with payment of utility arrears to prevent disconnection for electricity or natural gas up to a maximum of $2000 per utility once every 24 months.
Applicants must apply for these programs through the Niagara Region website and must provide detailed documentation. If the Niagara Region notifies NOTL Hydro that they are attempting to assist a customer, disconnection action will be suspended for a period of 21 days after receiving this notification.
IMPORTANT – The NEEF program is part of the Region’s Utility Benefits Program. Link is below:
