Energy-Efficiency Funds and Demand Response Programs

Most states have energy incentive programs that help offset energy costs while promoting energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies. FEMP researches these programs on a state-by-state basis to help Federal agencies meet their energy management goals.

This section compiles energy efficiency and renewable energy funds and demand response programs in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. FEMP defines energy efficiency and renewable energy programs and demand response/load management programs as follows:

Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Programs:

Public purpose programs administered by utilities, state agencies, or other third parties and paid for by utility ratepayers, typically through a non-bypassable system benefits charge instituted as part of restructuring legislation or rules
Utility programs administered by the local utility and paid for by utility ratepayers through their bundled rates
Programs sponsored by state agencies that are designed to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy and which are usually funded out of general tax revenues.

Demand Response/Load Management Programs:

Programs that provide incentives to curtail demand during peak energy usage periods in response to system reliability or market conditions.
