The program includes a building audit, development of an action plan for the building and development of a Measurement and Verification (M&V) plan to ensure the optimum on-going performance of the building and building systems.

Virtual Commissioning™ Program (VCx™ Program)*: The VCx™ energy efficiency program is a complimentary service for non-residential customers that is offered (by Power TakeOff) in partnership with FirstEnergy. A trained Energy Advisor analyzes your facility’s energy data with no on-site visits necessary. Participating is fast and easy with no eligible equipment criteria, fees or enrollment paperwork.

Building Tune Up*: Provides a path for customers to implement a comprehensive energy savings project in small and large commercial buildings. The program will focus on the tune up of central HVAC systems, retrofitting ductless mini-splits and packaged terminal units, advanced lighting controls, adjustment and calibration of building systems and controls, diagnostic testing and the installation of other measures that enhance building energy performance and savings.

Prescriptive/Commercial Lighting*: The Incentives include, but are not limited to lighting, lighting controls, HVAC, food service, appliances, and consumer electronics.

Instant Discounts*: Get instant discounts on qualified lighting and HVAC products when you purchase from local participating distributors.

Custom Equipment/Manufacturing Process Improvement*: Is offered to commercial, industrial, governmental and institutional customers for retrofits and system/process improvement projects that include technologies and/or customer-specific energy efficiency projects that do not meet the eligibility criteria for other FirstEnergy Pennsylvania Energy Solutions for Business programs.

Custom–Building Improvement*: Provide comprehensive analysis and financial incentives for existing facilities that may include complimentary energy modeling to reduce energy consumption and demand with a focus on mechanical upgrades and other envelope, energy management, refrigeration and process load improvements.

Commercial New Construction*: Includes complimentary energy design assistance and financial incentives to help offset the cost of implementing energy-efficient strategies in new construction and major renovation projects, to encourage reduction of both energy consumption and demand.

By participating in these energy efficiency and peak demand reduction programs, customers agree to allow their utility to retain ownership of all Capacity Rights which refers to the demand reduction associated with any energy efficiency and peak demand reduction measure for which incentives were provided by the Company. Your utility will aggregate these energy efficiency demand reduction attributes into the PJM capacity market with proceeds being used to offset the program costs. PA customers who have existing contracts with third party demand response service providers that were executed before June 1, 2021 (i.e., the start of Phase IV of Act 129 EE&C), have the option of retaining the PJM capacity rights associated with EE&C projects when participating in FirstEnergy PA Act 129 energy efficiency and peak demand reduction programs.
