Terms and ConditionsPECO Energy Company (PECO) is offering prescriptive incentives under PECO Multifamily Solutions to facilitate the implementation of cost-effective energy efficiency measures for multifamily customers, including governmental, nonprofit and institutional multifamily facilities. Any and all energy savings or environmental credits generated by the project described in this application will be retained by PECO. Funds are limited and subject to availability. The program may be modified or terminated without prior notice.
PROGRAM EFFECTIVE DATES
The current program is available until May 31, 2021. The first cycle year runs from June 1, 2016, through May 31, 2017 (‘Program Year Six’). Any subsequent program year cycle shall end on May 31. PECO Multifamily Solutions incentives are offered until approved funds are exhausted or until May 15 of each program year, whichever comes first. All PECO Multifamily Solutions projects must be completed with applications received no later than May 15 of the program year to be eligible for incentives in that program year. Subsequent program year budgets and plans, if any, will be made available toward the end of the existing program year.
PROGRAM AND PROJECT ELIGIBILITY
PECO Multifamily Solutions incentives are available for the common energy efficiency measures listed in the equipment schedule(s) attached to this application. Program incentives are available under the PECO Multifamily Solutions to multifamily properties within PECO’s service territory. These incentives are available to all customers who pay into the Energy Efficiency Charge and receive their electricity over PECO’s distribution network, regardless of the retail electric supplier.
PECO Multifamily Solutions participants must provide their master meter account information. Incentives are available for prescriptive measures installed in common areas only. Prescriptive measures are energy
efficiency measures with predetermined savings and incentive levels, and are paid on a per unit basis. These measures are listed in the Lighting and HVAC measure tables of the application equipment schedules.
Installation must be at the customer’s multifamily property and provide 100% of the energy benefits as stated in the application for a period of five years or for the life of the product, whichever is less. PECO has the right to claim a prorated amount of any incentive paid if the customer ceases to be a distribution customer of PECO, or removes the equipment or systems at any time five years after installation or during the life of the measure.
INCENTIVE PAYMENT LIMITS
Prescriptive incentives cannot exceed 100% of the customer’s total costs. Contractor labor costs can be considered in the total project cost, while customer internal labor costs cannot.
PRESCRIPTIVE APPLICATION REVIEW PROCESS
Pre-approval is required for prescriptive projects. A pre-approval application must be submitted before you purchase equipment or technology to be installed at the facility for which the incentive is being requested. Pre-approval for those projects is not a guarantee of program acceptance. Completed applications will be reviewed in the order received. The multifamily property name or location on the invoice must be the same as the application information. The incentive is paid to the customer after the project is completed and the application is approved for eligibility requirements and qualified measure installation. PECO will review prescriptive applications for eligibility and completeness. Applicants who submit incomplete applications will be notified of deficiencies upon review of the application, and could lose their place in line in the review process until all requested information is received. Applicants are encouraged to call the program hotline if they have any questions about documentation requirements. The application must be submitted within
60 days of project completion. Project documentation, including original dated invoices for the purchase and installation of the measures and/or product specification sheets, is required. Applications and all required supporting documentation must be received by May 15 of the current program year to be eligible for the current program year’s incentives. Applications submitted after May 15 are subject to the next program year’s incentive rates and program rules, if any shall be established.
The project invoice must provide sufficient detail to separate the project cost from the cost of other services, such as repairs and building code compliance. PECO reserves the right to request additional supporting documentation necessary to ensure measure eligibility and verify that the expected energy savings will occur. Requested information may include, but is not limited to: photos of existing or installed equipment, equipment purchase dates, installation dates, proof that the equipment is operational, manufacturer specifications, warranty information and proof of customer co-payment.
PECO will make every effort to maintain the confidentiality of customer information except that such information must be provided to the Pennsylvania PUC and its contractor, as well as PECO’s contractor for measurement and evaluation. The installed measures are not eligible for incentives from other PA ACT 129 Phase 3 Energy Efficiency Programs. Lighting purchased from a retailer under PECO Instant Lighting Discounts is ineligible for an additional incentive under the PECO Multifamily Solutions.
INSPECTIONS AND/OR PUC’S STATEWIDE PROGRAM EVALUATION
PECO, its agents, measurement and verification contractor, and/or the PUC statewide program evaluator have the right to audit or inspect all projects to verify compliance with the program rules and verify the accuracy of project documentation. This may include pre-installation and/or post-installation inspections, detailed lighting layout descriptions, metering, data collection, interviews and utility bill data analyses. The customer must allow access to project documents and the facility where the measures were installed for a period of five years after receipt of incentive payment by PECO.
TAX LIABILITY
Incentives may be taxable. If the incentive is more than $600, it will be reported to the IRS, and the customer will be provided with an IRS form 1099, unless the customer is exempt. PECO is not responsible for any tax liability that may be imposed on any customer as a result of the payment of program incentives. All customers must supply their Federal Tax Identification number to PECO in order to receive a program incentive. Please consult with your tax professional for information on the tax treatment of the incentives.
