Menendez, L F

The state of Connecticut developed the CONN SAVE home energy audit program in 1980 in response to federal requirements of the Residential Conservation Service (RCS). CONN SAVE, Inc., a nonprofit consortium of six utilities, delivers RCS program services to eligible utility customers, including an on-site audit with energy-saving recommendations; arranging services to implement recommended actions; lists of qualified suppliers, contractors and lenders; and inspection of completed installations of measures upon request. Over 10% of the eligible customers in Connecticut have participated in CONN SAVE to date, making the program one of the more successful state RCS efforts. A description and qualitative evaluation of the CONN SAVE program are provided.
