  32. It’s your wallet. It’s your world. Save the Watts. Consumer Education

  33. Awareness and Education

  34. Awareness and Education

  35. Lessons Learned What Didn’t Work Building Code Impacts What Works Well

  36. What Didn’t Work • Increased Incentives no Guarantee of Increased Participation • Goal Setting must be from market potential and not from Top Down approach • Keep it Simple • Rebate process and rules have to be extremely easy to understand and follow to get maximum participation • Advertising: One size doesn’t fit all • Commercial customers require relationships to be established with customer and equipment vendors • Gateway Communication 1998 • Technology not ready and costly • Concept ahead of technology • Residential Paid Audits • Additional time and information not accepted • Load Control programs can grow too large a percent of reserves

  37. Building Code Impacts • 1990 Code change from SEER 10 demonstrates slow transition to hi-efficiency Heat Pumps: 7 years • Record number of implementations in 2006 with less than 50% of that number expected in 2007 50% drop

  38. What Works Well • Duct Seal & Repair • Over 660,000 ducts repaired/sealed • Success due to education of consumer & contractors to address an invisible issue • Duct curriculum and training developed and delivered annually to AC contractors • Direct Load Control has 1.2M customers • Saved 16% of Total USA Peak Demand Reduction1 • Florida placed 2 utilities in Top Ten of Nation1 in MW of EE & DR • Developed multiple delivery channels • Field representatives and account managers • Participating Independent Contractors • Trade Association partnerships • Community organizations partnerships • Government Agencies partnerships • Internet access to programs and rebate information • Florida on track 5,332 Summer MW of Reduction and 5,655 Winter MW in 2007 • This is equivalent to 14―400MW power plants 1Source: 2005 per DOE EIA
