EXECUffilE SUMMARy
The CFL Program is one aspect of tIw Departmenl of Utilities (Utility) demand·,ide
management activities. Replacing incandescent lighting with mort efficient compact
fluorescent lamps reduces the City~s electric requirements and cost.
In 1995, Utilities Departmen! Resource Conservation implemented a residential pilot
program for CFLs to teSI the acceptance of CFLs and the cost effectiveness of implementing
!he program. An evaluation was conducted at the end of the program whicll determined tile
program to be cost effective and marketable. In April. 1994, Resource Conservation
received approval from Council co implement a full scale program lTl t:he: Fall of 1994
(CMR:231 :94).
-~---
The full seale program will be administered in much the same way as the pilot program.
The Utility will purchase CFLs in bulk ior approximately $13.50 each. Residents ,"""he
vouchers in their utility bills to purchase up to five CFLs for $9.50 each. Local vendors
agree with the City to sto<:k and sell the CFLs al the utility-subsidized price (plus a small
handeling iee) as a service to the community and as a way to invite customers into their
stores to generate future bIlsinoss.
Under its ag"""""m with CMUA, the City "ill provide among other items a written report
of the effecliveIJeSS, including the wst-effectivtness. of the program and sample d()(;uments
and fo!Tl\S.
