Delaware SHINES

SHINES brings together state programs and policies, legislative action, nonprofit resources, local government processes and utility coordination to help Delawareans access clean energy, lower energy costs and strengthen grid stability.
The goal is simple: make it easier for Delaware families to find the resources they need to save money, improve their homes and participate in a cleaner, more reliable energy system.
