Connecticut Energy Assistance Program Open for the 2026-27 Season: Basic Benefits of 355 to 705 Dollars, With Applications Since September 1 and a Deadline of May 31, 2027
Hartford, Connecticut — The Connecticut Energy Assistance Program (CEAP) page shows applications now being accepted for the 2026-27 season. The program helps residents offset home heating costs, and applications typically take 30 to 45 minutes to complete.
Basic benefits for the season are 355 to 705 dollars, based on household size, income and heating source, and benefits are usually paid directly to the utility company or fuel vendor. Eligibility is set at household income at or below 60 percent of the state median income.
Households using deliverable fuels such as oil, kerosene and propane may be eligible for additional fuel deliveries. CEAP recipients may also qualify for payment matching plans, shut-off protection and heating equipment repairs or replacement.
Online and in-person applications opened on September 1. CEAP is an annual benefit, so households must apply each year; the last day to apply this season is May 31, 2027, and mailed applications must be postmarked by that date. The program is administered by the Connecticut Department of Social Services in partnership with local Community Action Agencies.
