PECO Gives County Rebate for Energy Conservation

The rebate is awarded under the state Energy Savings Act for updating facilities with the most efficient lighting, controls and equipment.

MEDIA–Representatives of PECO, an Exelon Company, presented a rebate for $274,255 to Delaware County for energy conservation measures, which was accepted by County Councilman Thomas J. McGarrigle from PECO Senior Marketing Specialist Tom Brubaker, Yvette Brown, of PECO Outreach and Marketing, and Ralph H. Brown Jr., Regional External Affairs Manager for Delaware County for PECO. 

They were joined in the presentation by Joe Solomon, President of Provident Energy Consulting, and Mike Lang, a Principal of Provident Energy Consulting.

Provident coordinated the application process for the County under PECO’s Smart Ideas Program, which resulted in the rebate under the Pennsylvania Energy Savings Act (PESA) for updating facilities with the  most energy efficient and modern lighting, energy management controls and other equipment and measures which yielded reductions of 20-25 percent in energy and costs.
