Summary

Residential & Hard-to-Reach Programs

The primary objective of these programs is to achieve cost-effective reductions in peak demand. Additional objectives of the programs are to:

  • encourage private sector delivery of energy efficiency products and services,
  • achieve customer energy and cost savings,
  • significantly reduce barriers to participation by streamlining program procedures, and
  • encourage participation by a wide range of service providers.

Participating Project Sponsors market their services to customers and reach an agreement on which measures to be installed, the terms of the sale, price and any other issues. A customer then signs the Host Customer Agreement and Acknowledgement form. Upon installation, a customer may be selected as part of a random sample of sites to be inspected or surveyed by the Texas Evaluation, Measurement and Verification contractor. Residential incentives are available for reductions in peak demand (kilowatts (kW)) and energy consumption (kilowatt-hours (kWh)). Visit the program web site for more information.

TNMP High-Performance Homes


The TNMP High-Performance Homes program promotes the construction and certification of new High-Performance and ENERGY STAR-certified homes. This voluntary program provides financial incentives and other types of assistance to production and custom homebuilders who commit to construct homes within the TNMP service territory that meet High-Performance or ENERGY STAR specifications. The goal of the Program is to create a sustainable market that leads to:

  • a continuous supply of High-Performance and ENERGY STAR-certified homes,
  • increased consumer demand and perceived value of High-Performance and ENERGY STAR-certified homes, and
  • increased improvements in home energy performance.
