NM Energy$mart Weatherization Program

NM Energy$mart provides qualifying home-efficiency work through regional providers. Submit the household application to the provider serving your location, rather than to Housing New Mexico.

Who can apply

Eligible homeowners and renters are considered under program income and property rules. Rental work requires landlord consent and a signed agreement before services can proceed.

What help is available

The program provides selected energy-saving retrofits and home modifications at no charge to eligible residents. Assessment determines suitable work; it is different from a cash utility award.

Documents to prepare

  • Income and household records requested by the provider.
  • Home address and energy information.
  • Ownership or tenancy details.
  • Landlord consent and the provider’s rental agreement if renting.

How to get started

  1. Identify the provider

    Use the county and tribal service-area list.

  2. Request and submit intake

    Central New Mexico Housing Corporation serves the listed northern area, Southwestern Regional Housing the southern area, and Red Feather the Navajo Nation route.

  3. Complete property assessment

    Ask about scheduling, approved measures and any condition that must be resolved before work.

After applying

Save your application copy and provider contact. Ask about waiting-list updates and post-work inspection and maintenance.
