Pennsylvania State Public Funds for Energy Efficiency

  • Mandated by a 1987 PUC order, the Low-Income Usage Reduction Program (LIURP) was renewed in 1992 through 1996, and continued under universal service provisions of electric and gas utility restructuring legislation. The state's 15 major gas and electric utilities participate in LIURP with a pre-restructuring funding level of about 2/10 of one percent of each utility's total revenues. LIURP includes an education component that addresses energy savings, regular bill payment behavior and provides application assistance.
