HEAP and PIPP Plus program

Summer/Winter Crisis Programs 
The Summer and Winter Crisis (Emergency HEAP) Programs are designed to assist low income households with staying warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Eligibility is based on 175% of the Federal Poverty Income Guidelines.  To receive electrical assistance during the summer, a chronic illness must be documented if no one in the home is 60+ years old.  Families who are facing an emergency situation and have a 10-day supply or less of heating fuel, or a heating utility shut-off notice could qualify for assistance during the winter months.  

​​PIPP Plus
Percentage of Income Payment Plan (PIPP Plus) is an extended payment arrangement requiring regulated gas and electric companies to accept payments based on a percentage of the household income. Homes heated with gas pay 6% of monthly household income to both the gas and electric companies, while electricity heated homes pay 10% to the electric company. Eligibility for the program consists of utilizing a company regulated by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio (PUCO) for the primary or secondary heat source. Must have a total household income which is at or below 150% of the federal poverty level and apply for all eligible energy assistance programs.
