Impact analysis of a residential energy conservation shared savings program: The General Public Utilities experience

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7175290
This report evaluates the effectiveness of a residential shared savings program - The Residential Energy Conservation Action Program (RECAP). It focuses primarily upon the electricity savings attributable to RECAP, but also assesses customer satisfaction with the program, comfort benefits, electric peak load controls, and the use of alternative heating fuels. Since RECAP has been implemented by different contractors in various New Jersey and Pennsylvania communities, some attention is given to contractor- and community-specific program impacts in an attempt to identify those program design features which have worked best.
