Project Description

Briefly describe the proposed project, including target customers, end-uses, marketing approach, and measurement and verification method (deemed savings, simplified M&V, or measured savings).

If the Project Sponsor elects the Deemed Savings option, then it is not necessary to provide a detailed M&V plan.

Estimated Impacts

Provide measure installation and savings information for the Res/SC customer class.

If the Project Sponsor intends to use the Deemed Savings option exclusively, please refer to the deemed savings measure list to create estimates of average kW and kWh savings per installation site.

If using the Measured Savings option, enter an estimate of kW and kWh savings per site.

Work Plan

Describe the customer types being targeted and/or building/dwelling characteristics being targeted. Describe the marketing mechanisms to be used (e.g., direct mail, telemarketing, retail displays, product demonstrations, customer coupons, customer rebates, price incentives, advertising campaign, etc.). Describe previous projects that were successfully completed by the Project Sponsor utilizing similar marketing methods.

Describe your use of sub-contractors, including what as Project Sponsor you will do and what you will allow a sub-contractor to do. Cover all aspects of your project: marketing, site assessment, securing customer agreements, installing measures, and reporting results to Entergy.

Sensitive company and project information submitted by the Project Sponsor to Entergy, such as financial statements and project costs, will be treated confidentially to the fullest extent possible, and will not be provided directly to outside parties other than the PUCT at the PUCT's request. Entergy will have no liability to any Project Sponsor or other party as a result of public disclosure of any submittals.

FALSE, MISLEADING OR INCORRECT INFORMATION

Entergy reserves the right to discontinue its evaluation of all submittals from any Project Sponsor who submits false, misleading, or incorrect information. If an evaluation is discontinued under these circumstances, Entergy will return all of the Project Sponsor's submittals.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS TO REPORT INSTALLATIONS

Project Sponsors input implementation data directly via the program web site, and may input installation data all at once, weekly or in any other manner. During the month, Project Sponsors can review this data and make any changes necessary. Once the entire month's implementation data has been input and reviewed, the Project Sponsor clicks the "submit" button to transmit this data to Entergy.

Project Implementation Report

The implementation report must include details regarding each facility included in the report. The report shall include the following information for each customer facility completed:

• Customer type (Residential);
• Customer name;
• Service address;
• Telephone number;
• List of installed measures; and
• kWh, kW and incentive amounts by measure type

Customer Acknowledgements

Project Sponsors serving multiple customers must submit a signed Customer Acknowledgement for each customer. Hard copies of Customer Acknowledgements must be sent to the Program Manager by fax, mail or electronically. Among other things, the Acknowledgement provides Entergy with permission to inspect the installation, which may be required before incentive payments are approved.

Project Invoices

It is not necessary for a Project Sponsor to submit an invoice.
