April 22 Web Conference Focuses on CFL Giveaways

Do discounts and giveaways of Compact Fluorescent (CFL) bulbs really work?  Or, despite your best intentions, do free and reduced-price CFL programs simply pour money down a hole? Your cooperative isn’t the first to wonder. These and other questions will be explored during an upcoming Web conference.

CFL Discounts and Giveaways: Member Boon or Boondoggle?
April 22, 2009
1:00-2:00 p.m. Eastern Time
Registration: Free for Touchstone Energy Co-ops

In this informative hour, you'll hear how two cooperatives – one a large G&T, the other a distribution system – have fared giving away CFLs or promoting CFL rebates.  You'll learn whether they actually significantly reduced energy use by consumers and paid back their investment…or not. If you’re considering a CFL giveaway or rebate, don’t guess whether your program approach and design will work.  Hear from those who have real first-hand field experience and benefit from their lessons and findings!
