Radiant Barrier, Attic Insulation and other energy efficiency measures are about to have a cost tied to them in Michigan

A utility in Michigan is about to begin following Austin Energy's lead and begin charging customers a surcharge to help pay for it's newly implemented rebate program....
Customers will pay — 71 cents for (residential electric customers)and $1.72 a month for those who use natural gas. An additional fee of $2.50 a month will appear on bills starting this fall....Not too sure how succesful they will be in implementing the program - but with the cold weather in Michigan, I am sure the Attic Insulation rebates will be getting turned in left and right....

  1. As a point of informatin Austin Energy does not charge its customers a surcharge to pay for the utility's energy efficiency rebate program. Never have. The energy efficiency program is funded from operating revenues.
