ERIP
Frequently Asked Questions Why is
E.L.K. Energy Inc. providing an incentive to these customers? This program has
been developed in cooperation with the Ontario Power Authority (OPA).
The OPA's mission is to ensure long-term reliable and sustainable supply of
electricity for the Province. A major focus for the OPA is providing
programs and initiatives that promote and encourage better conservation and
demand management of electricity for all sectors across the province.
ERIP will be a catalyst to move forward commercial, industrial &
institutional (CI&I) and agricultural projects that have been stalled for
various reasons. Utility incentives bring new attention to projects and
often assist in getting the commitment to proceed from customers. Why are
these particular technologies included in the prescriptive list? The prescriptive
list is based on well known technologies that are available in the market
place with established electrical savings. Can I
hire my own consultant to validate my proposal? We encourage
customers to consult with or obtain assistance from industry professional to
ensure that their design, proposals and installation best meet their
needs. E.L.K. Energy Inc. will engage a consultant of its choice to
review any applications or evaluate any completed projects as appropriate. What if
I don't realize any savings after investing all this money? The qualifying
technologies are tried and true with known performance parameters.
There are many variables that could affect their performance and we suggest
that you discuss these with your designers and installers. Can I apply
for funding through other organizations? Yes, we encourage customers to
take advantage of all funding available. Please also note that all
funding will be considered in determining the amount of the E.L.K. Energy
Inc. incentive. The project that I wish to undertake uses a simple straightforward technology. Can it be included under the prescriptive program? The prescriptive program is limited at this time to a fixed number of technologies. We will not be changing the qualifying technologies at this time but will review and update the qualifying list periodically to keep up with changing technologies.
