Efficiency Programs
Comfort Partners provides energy saving
measures to low income customers at no
cost to improve their energy affordability and
comfort.
Energy efficiency measures may include air sealing
against drafts, insulation, and duct sealing, installation
of high-performance products and appliances such as
compact fluorescent lighting and ENERGY STAR
refrigerators, and performance of health and safety
testing to detect, reduce, or prevent the existence of
dangerous combustion by-products.
In 2008 The Comfort Partners Program served 7,190
households and delivered a total of 10,277 MWh in
annual electric savings.

Local Government Energy Audit Program
• Eligible facilities include town halls, courtrooms, police & fire stations,
offices, sanitation or transportation structures, schools, community
centers, and any other local government owned buildings
• Five pre-qualified, pre-selected energy auditing firms
• 75% of audit cost paid after completion of audit
• Remaining 25% paid if net cost of installed measures exceeds remaining
cost of audit
• $100,000 annual incentive cap (in process of raising)
• Participants must pass a resolution enabling application submittal
• Prioritization Process with Sustainable Jersey
Direct Install
(anticipated launch May 2009
•Provides direct installation of prescribed measures that save
electric and/or natural gas
•Local contractors install measures based on building
needs
•80% of the material and labor costs are incentivized
•Business owner only pays for remaining amount (20%)
•Provides for immediate savings
•No cap on measure installation per customer site (as long
as measures hit savings criteria)
Pay for Performance
launching March 20th
• Buildings over 200kW average peak demand
• Holistic building approach for higher levels of energy
performance
• Must exceed ASHRAE 2004, Appendix G Guidelines
• May include CHP
•Incentives of up to $1 million/meter for natural gas and
electric
• Another incentive of up to $1 million for CHP
•Incentives split and paid upfront, upon completion and
one year after built (measured savings)
•The more you save the more you receive
Residential - Retrofit
Home Performance with ENERGY STAR®
• Treating the house as a system
• Understanding the interactions between all
systems in a home: air leakage, insulation,
combustion appliances, heating & cooling
systems and ventilation
• Looking at the big picture

New Jersey ENERGY STAR Homes
•Builders now have choices: The Introduction of Tiers…
Tier 1- ENERGY STAR (the current performance level,
HERS Index of 85 or less, plus all mandatory
requirements); or an alternative prescriptive EPA
National Builder Option Package (climate zone specific
BOP)
Tier 2- ENERGY STAR with a HERS Index of 65 or less
(approximately equivalent to the current Federal Energy
Tax Credit level);
Tier 3- “NJ Climate Choice Home”- Proposed (a
customized high performance level at or approaching
Net-Zero Energy).
Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)
Renewable Generator:
Production of
Renewable Energy
Commodity Electricity
Environmental Benefits
(S02, NOX,CO2 )
Electric Supplier:
Retires the REC
New Jersey REC or
Solar REC -1 MWh
Certificates represent the environmental benefits and other attributes
associated with electricity generated from a renewable energy generator .
May be traded independently of underlying electricity.
