DETROIT, Aug. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Utility companies across the U.S. are facing a significant challenge: driving consumer adoption of their energy efficiency programs, products, and services. With $8.8 billion in incentives available through the U.S. Department of Energy’s Home Energy Rebate program, utilities play a crucial role in the sales, services, and disbursement of these rebates. However, many have struggled to create a clear and accessible path for their customers to take advantage of these benefits.

The Hidden Barrier to Utility Programs

The disconnect between utility companies’ program goals, rebate processing, coordination with contractors and vendors is a critical issue that jeopardizes the success of these incentive programs. These gaps often result in a fragmented experience for home and business customers—the very individuals these programs are designed to benefit. Customers frequently face delays, confusion, and unmet expectations when trying to access rebates or services, leading to diminished trust and lower participation rates.

To overcome these challenges, it is essential for utilities to streamline communication and processes between all stakeholders. An integrated approach ensures a smoother and more positive customer experience, directly impacting the success of demand-side management (DSM) and distributed energy resource (DER) programs. (RMI) (Virtual Peaker).
