CAYCE, S.C. – Dominion Energy recently hosted a kickoff event in Salley to inform residents of the Neighborhood Energy Efficiency Program (NEEP), which offers energy-saving products and services to eligible customers.

The program will offer approximately 500 eligible customers located in Salley free energy-efficiency assessments and improvements, as well as other energy-saving products and services. Residents began receiving information on how to participate in January, and installations will begin in homes in early February. NEEP provides income-qualified customers with these services in communities throughout the company’s service territory.

“This program is about going directly to our customers to provide them with education and tools to help them improve their everyday energy usage,” said Gerald Freeman, program manager of Dominion Energy South Carolina’s Neighborhood Energy Efficiency Program. “Program representatives work face to face with participants to help them save money and create a more energy-efficient community.”

Energy-saving products available to eligible residential electric customers through the program include the following:  

• LED light bulbs 
• Faucet aerators
• Low-flow shower heads
• Electric water heater wraps and insulation for water pipes
• Weatherstripping for doors and windows
• Advanced power strips
• Adjustment of electric water heater temperature
• Heating, ventilation and air conditioning filter replacement

Dominion Energy South Carolina started NEEP in 2013 to provide eligible residential electric customers with energy education and the direct installation of energy-saving improvements at no cost.

Beyond NEEP, customers can take advantage of the energy-efficiency tips, rebates and incentives associated with all EnergyWise programs. During the past 10 years, Dominion Energy customers in South Carolina have reduced electricity usage by more than 992,000 megawatt hours – that’s enough energy to power approximately 88,500 homes for a year.

Dominion Energy offers a comprehensive portfolio of EnergyWise programs that work together to increase overall energy efficiency and reduce energy usage. For more information about these programs, visit dominionenergysc.com/EnergyWise or call toll-free at 877-510-7234.
