HTR SOP Summary

The Hard-to-Reach Standard Offer Program (SOP) was developed by AEP to provide incentives to suppliers and installers of energy efficiency services to effectuate electric energy efficiency projects at AEP hard-to-reach customers' residences. The primary objective of these programs is to achieve cost-effective reduction in peak summer electric demand. This performance-based program includes monetary incentive payments for "deemed" energy savings generated by installing energy efficiency measures.

Program details will be available in our program manual, which will be available for downloaded via the left menu bar soon. AEP will accept applications for peak demand and energy savings with "project sponsors" who are typically energy efficiency service firms such as air conditioning contractors, insulation installers, lighting contractors or national energy service companies.
