Piedmont Natural Gas offers rebates

Posted by Rhiannon Fionn-Bowman on Wed, Mar 25, 2009 at 11:43 AM

But, first, you must buy new heaters and pay $18-$20 more on your monthly bill. (It's always the minor details, eh?) The good news is your increased bill will help low-income folks and nonprofits, too.

No mention of what the plan might be for the replaced heaters. Will they go straight to the dump, be recycled or refurbished? Remember, Piedmont, being good to Mama Earth is not just about reducing consumption, it's also about reusing and recycling items.

The N.C. Utilities Commission has approved Piedmont Natural Gas Co. Inc.s $1.28 million conservation plan.

The program will offer customers rebates to buy high-efficiency gas water heaters and space heaters. Piedmont will give rebates up to $50 for traditional water heaters, $250 for tankless water heaters and $300 for furnaces

The plan also includes retrofitting homes of low-income individuals for greater energy efficiency and providing conservation services to nonprofit organizations.
