There are numerous barriers to the energy efficiency market. On-bill financing programs, via the electric and/or gas utility bill, address some of the barriers and help make efficiency easy. Savings from efficiency measures offset the costs of improvements, so consumers pay while they save. Customers targeted include small businesses, local governments, homeowners, and landlords/renters.
