Which HVAC System Provides the Greatest True Payback?

Well, I'm not afraid to put an "air source heat pump and plenum heater on a dual fuel system" in the ring. With the rise in energy prices as a whole, if we get back to the basics and work off the efficiency of an air source heat pump and plenum heater we can provide the greatest return on investment for our customers. We are looking at typical and real paybacks versus a propane 90% furnace in the two to four year range. Even with all the rebates other renewable energy systems have available, they can't claim that! Please use this sheet to show your contractors they have a great good plan to sell electric heat right now.

Conservation Improvement Program (CIP) for Solar

Co-operatives and power companies have funds that can be used to give incentives for reducing kilowatt usage and hours. The program requires 1.5% of annual revenue to be used in this directive. Some power companies like MN Power in Duluth have used these funds to match the MN state rebate. If we review we our solar incentives, we have a 30% federal tax credit with no cap. We also have a 25% MN state rebate up to $2,500.00. If the power company matches another 25% from the state and we put all the rebates together how does that stack up? Well depending on how they are applied this looks to reduce the cost to the end user by about 80%. Wow that's a lot of rebates and I think we are going to be selling some solar.
