Heating & Cooling

To heat and cool your home, there are two overarching fuel types you can use: renewables and fossil fuels. Explore the pages below to learn more about the two types and the different options for each.

Renewables

Renewables come from energy sources that can be renewed, like wind power or plants.

Fossil Fuels

Fossil fuels are energy sources that can only be used once, and when burned, add more greenhouse gases to our atmosphere.
