The EE Process in Solarize Triad

  • You are qualified as an EE candidate
  • Our EE partner calls you to schedule a free

energy audit (normal cost: $180-$300)

  • The audit is completed and you receive a

proposal of recommended work

  • If you decide to go ahead with the work, you will be provided a Services

Agreement detailing the work to be performed and cost

  • Both parties sign the contract and work is completed
  • After the work is completed, you will receive a two-year labor warranty

(twice what is required in NC)

Efficiency as an Investment

US EPA: investments in efficiency have a far better monetary return than any other investment strategy available. Efficiency improvements generally return the investment within 6-7 years and increase the value of your home. With EE, the average homeowner can cut their consumption by 20-30% and reduce their heating and cooling loads by 40%. Average return on investment (ROI) is 16% The payback can be as little as 1-2 years for things like lighting

  • r six years for insulation.
