Our energy-efficiency programs are reviewed and approved by our regulators to ensure they meet cost-effectiveness criteria. This means the net preset value of the benefits (savings over the life of the measure) has to be greater than the cost to install the measure. WMECO does not generally pay incentives for measures that do not save electric energy like gas-fired or oil-fired equipment. WMECO also does not pay incentives for fuel switching like co-generation or self-generation.
