• Solar Water Heating Pilot Program Procedures (2009)-

  This document was put out by Progress Energy Carolinas (PEC) in 2009. They wanted to conduct a solar water heating pilot programme in North Carolina to measure and validate the achievable energy savings and coincident peak impacts associated with implementing residential solar water heating. The goal is to determine the demand and energy impacts from solar water heating installations in the Carolinas rather than relying on information from other regions of the country. This document lays out all the objectives, purposes, participant eligibility, and background on PEC.

  For consumers in a residential area, Progress Energy offers many incentives. If the customer buys EnergyWise equipment for the whole electric, heating, and cooling system of their home, they will receive free installation, and an upfront $450 rebate. There is also a $200 rebate for customers in Orange County, Florida; and a possible $2,000 Federal tax credit.
