The product of workshops with a range of stakeholders, the Duke program is designed to help customers overcome a key hurdle to upgrading to more efficient equipment: cash. Though a new water heater or heat pump can significantly cut energy use, it can take years for lower electric bills to cancel out the upfront cost of a more efficient appliance.

Regulators also greenlit an energy-saving pilot for newly constructed apartment units. Under the five-year trial program, developers get a rebate from Duke for installing energy-saving measures. Apartment-dwellers then pay the company back through a monthly fee.
