Residential members who want to update their homes are able to finance their purchase of home energy products with a loan from National Cooperative Bank (NCB). We’ve worked together with NCB to expand member access to our home energy products and services. These loans are available to EIEC members interested in products such as standby generators, geothermal installations, or home energy efficiency projects like insulation.

This provides a flexible option for members to spread their investment cost over multiple years instead of needing to make an up-front cash payment in order to participate and enjoy the benefits of these offerings.

Questions about the loans can be directed to Brittney Baldwin at (866) 499-3517 or BBaldwin@ncb.coop. If you have any questions related to EIEC products, please contact us at (800) 824-5102.
