EFI, Fannie Mae & Google Partner to Help Hard-to-Reach Audiences Save!
The low to moderate income segment (LMI) has historically been a hard-to-reach audience within a utility’s customer base. EFI, Fannie Mae & Google are partnering with EFI’s utility clients to target, engage and offer low to no cost Smart Thermostats to these hard-to-reach audiences. This partnership allows the 3 companies to utilize their technologies, services, and products to ensure even the hardest to reach customers can save on energy efficiency products.
Join us to learn more about how we were able to increase engagement and utility marketplace activity within this segment by 5X across clients like National Grid, CenterPoint Energy and New Jersey Natural Gas.
