APS offers rebates for energy efficiency

subscribe

Arizona Public Service Co. (APS) is offering rebates for residential customers who switch to high-efficiency air conditioners and heat pumps.

The company has put aside $1.5 million for the rebate program, which would allow for up to a $500 rebate per unit if done through an APS-qualified contractor.

The move is part of a larger effort by the Phoenix-based utility to move customers toward more energy efficiency. Officials said homeowners who replace units installed in the late 1970s or early 1980s could reduce the heating and cooling portion of their electric bill by up to 50 percent.

Project examines potential for Europe's power grid to increase HVDC Technology

PARIS - A partnership of 14 leading European energy industry companies, research organizations and universities has launched a new project to identify opportunities to increase integration of HVDC technology into the European transmission system.

The HVDC-WISE project, in which the University of Strathclyde is the UK’s only academic partner, is supported by the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme.

The project’s goal is to develop a toolkit for grid developers to evaluate the grid’s performance under extreme conditions and to plan systems to realise the full range of potential benefits from deep integration of HVDC technology into the European transmission system.
