Application Improvements

  • Combined SPC Application — Itemized and calculated measures use the same application.
  • Payee designation – The applicant may designate a vendor or other party as the recipient of the incentive payment.
  • Credit utility account feature – The incentive payment may be directed as a credit on the SCE customer service bill. Form 2 of the application form allows you to indicate this option.  

Software Improvements

The SPC software offers calculation tools to assist with many types of energy savings calculations. In addition to the 24 measures currently available, users can now calculate savings for frictionless compressors, and over/undersizing HVAC equipment.

Early Retirement

Eligible Early Retirement measures continue to receive larger incentives than traditional calculated measures. Incentives are based on existing system efficiency rather than minimum standards. Existing equipment must have 5 or more years of remaining useful life to qualify.
