What is Home Electrification? We did it!
Home electrification refers to the process of transitioning household appliances, heating, cooling, and transportation systems from fossil fuel-based sources, such as natural gas or oil, to electric-powered alternatives. It aims to reduce carbon emissions, improve energy efficiency, and promote sustainability by relying on renewable electricity.
