Enhancing the lives of Ameren Illinois residential customers with disabilities and mobility challenges through the installation of various energy efficiency smart home devices at no cost to customers.

The objective of the Accessibility Pilot through the Ameren Illinois Energy Efficiency Program is to enhance the lives of Ameren Illinois residential customers with disabilities, mobility challenges and accessibility barriers with the installation of energy-efficient and smart home devices at no cost to customers.

In addition, the Accessibility Pilot works with Community Partner advocacy groups and Program Ally contractors such as Veterans Maintenance Solutions to serve customers.

The Ameren Illinois Energy Efficiency Program can help make homes more accessible through the potential installation of:

  • Smart speakers that respond to resident questions and commands.
  • Smart thermostats that automatically adjust heating and cooling temperature settings.
  • Smart lighting that responds to voice commands.
  • Smart power strips that automate home devices.
  • Thermostatic valves that regulate faucet water temperature.
  • Smart Wi-Fi-connected cameras to increase visibility and safety.
