About CCM Energy

CCM Energy was built around a single question: is what your household pays for energy actually healthy, or is it quietly eating your budget? We built the CCM Energy Score — a free, instant calculator — to answer that in one number, using the same energy-burden methodology the U.S. Department of Energy applies at a national level.

We are an independent, advertiser- and affiliate-supported publisher. We are not a utility, a government agency, a financial institution, or affiliated with the U.S. Department of Energy. Our tools and articles are for general educational purposes — see our full disclaimer.

What we believe

• Energy affordability data should be usable by an ordinary household in under a minute, not locked in a government spreadsheet.
• A single, honest number beats a wall of unexplained charts.
• Every figure we publish should trace back to a named, checkable source.
