AI summary The document discusses the effectiveness of various energy efficiency measures within the Power Down program. It highlights that while other energy efficiency products like programmable thermostats and ENERGY STAR appliances are incentivized, they are infrequently purchased due to high costs and long lifespans. In contrast, CFLs remain the primary source of energy savings. NMR believes the PD program will struggle to achieve similar savings from these other products.

difficult for the PD program to have these other retail products provide anywhere near the energy savings that were derived from the CFLs. Under these circumstances, NMR believes that the PD program should consider the following steps to h...

AI summary NMR suggests steps to mitigate the impact of removing regular CFLs from the PD program, including focusing on specialty CFLs, incandescent bounty programs, LED rebates, consumer education, and promoting energy-efficient appliances.
