PECO’s Smart Business Solutions Program
PECO now offers a “direct install” program for the traditionally hard-to-reach small business sector. Facilities whose peak demand is less than 100 kW – i.e., almost any business in the Wallingford-Swarthmore School District – can receive a free energy audit from a program-certified contractor that will provide a series of recommendations for improvements to lighting, HVAC, refrigeration, and electric hot water systems, all of which have associated rebates (covering up to 50-60% of the upgrades). The customer can then choose to have some or all of these installed; all measures carry warranties. Small business direct install programs have been very successful and popular in many other utility company territories across the country; PECO’s version is a welcome addition to the company’s Smart Ideas suite.
