2009 Focus on Energy Program Participation

Although 2009 was a rather challenging year in the construction industry, there was a bright spot that we at Current Electric can be thankful for. As a promoter and participator of the Focus on Energy incentive plan, we installed and provided energy efficient products for 45 projects in and around the Milwaukee area.  In a letter we received from Focus on Energy, we were informed that those 45 projects received a combined total of $144,186.00 of financial incentives that went directly to our customers.  In addition to the incentives, the energy savings associated with these projects reduced annual usage by 1,604,322 kilowatt hours - further reducing our customer’s energy bills by $128,346.00 at $.08 per kwh. 

According to Focus on Energy, the measurable energy savings is equivalent to preventing 802.16 tons of coal from being burned, or removing 259.10 cars from the road.  In 2010, Current Electric will continue to be a leader in the education and promotion of energy efficient products, and provide the support to our customers that they need to  improve their bottom line and help reduce their carbon footprint.
