Comprehensive Home Energy Audits
Duke, Lowe’s team up on energy efficiency
Charlotte Business Journal
Duke Energy Carolinas has partnered with Lowe’s Cos. Inc. to provide the utility’s customers with compact fluorescent bulbs at a 40 percent discount.
It is the first such program Duke has offered in the Carolinas.
The 40 percent-off coupons are available to the utility’s customers at www.duke-energy.com/CFL. Customers can print four of the coupons after entering their account numbers and other information. The coupons can be used for purchases of compact fluorescent bulbs at Lowe’s stores in the utility’s service area through Aug. 11.
Compact fluorescent bulbs are 75 percent more efficient than standard bulbs and last five to seven years, according to EnergyStar, a government program that promotes energy efficiency.
“By initiating this collaboration, we hope to help our North Carolina and South Carolina customers save money, reduce their energy consumption and have a positive impact on the environment,” says Brett Carter, president of Duke Energy Carolinas.
Duke Energy Carolinas is a division of Charlotte-based Duke Energy Corp. (NYSE:DUK).
Lowe’s (NYSE:LOW) is a home-improvement retailer based in Mooresville.
