The intention of EPP is to improve the electric efficiency of low-income households with high energy usage that participate in or are eligible for the Percentage of Income Payment Plan (PIPP) Plus program. EPP performs in-home audits and installs appropriate Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) that have a Savings to Investment Ratio (SIR) of one or greater, using the most effective delivery mechanism for the group of customers it serves. EPP also educates customers on how they can reduce the amount of electricity they use and improve their homeʼs energy efficiency. The program consists of three parts: 1. Baseload efficiency which audits lighting, appliances, and all other uses of electricity not related to heating and/or cooling. 2. Weatherization program (i.e., Baseload plus) for households that heat/cool with electricity; and 3. Customer education.
