Delaware Ratepayer Funded Assistance

Restructuring legislation provides funding for low-income energy assistance and weatherization through a systems benefit charge (SBC) on Delmarva Power & Light Company customers. The Department of Health and Social Services, Division of State Service Centers, the LIHEAP grantee, administers the fund as a program that is separate from LIHEAP, mostly for clients at or above 150 percent of federal poverty guidelines.
