4.3 Impact Evaluation Net Savings<br />

Act 129 compliance is based on gross savings, but the Company's Evaluators are presently finalizing a<br />

portfolio-level net to gross survey to inform the program planning for Phase II of Act 129. The<br />

evaluation of the legacy FirstEnergy companies included net-to-gross research based on <strong>Program</strong> <strong>Year</strong> 3<br />

(PY3) participants. Given the mid-year transition of <strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> programs to FirstEnergy's model,<br />

<strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> specific net-to-gross research was not conducted. The evaluation team plans to<br />

complete net-to-gross research on <strong>West</strong> <strong>Penn</strong> <strong>Power</strong> program participants starting in February 2013 and<br />

based on six months of PY4 participants. These results will be available in time to inform the final plans<br />

for Phase II. The Net-to-Gross data acquisition will be based on participant self-report surveys and will<br />

follow a similar approach as that used for the FirstEnergy legacy companies.<br />

4.4 Process Evaluation<br />

During PY3 quarter 1 and quarter 2, over 500 central air conditioners and heat pumps have been<br />

rebated through the Efficient HVAC Equipment <strong>Program</strong>. An additional 448 HVAC tune-ups were<br />

rebated. A web survey and follow-up phone calls to those who did not respond to the web survey were<br />
