The project will increase energy efficiency in homes by reducing energy costs and increasing comfort while safeguarding the health and safety of the resident. Eligible applicants are those persons or families whose income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level. On-site energy audits are conducted on each home to determine which of the following measures would be installed or services performed, up to an average of $6,500 per home: blower door guided air sealing to effectively locate and reduce air-leakage throughout the home; installation of attic, wall, basement and crawlspace insulation and ventilation to reduce energy loss; heating system modification or replacement to increase the efficiency and/or safety of the heating system; minor repairs, and/or health and safety measures are provided (when necessary) to allow the safe and effective installation of the weatherization measures; energy baseload reduction, including CFL and appliance replacement, and; client education on the proper use and maintenance of the installed Weatherization measures and ways to reduce energy waste everyday. The project will weatherize 1,435 homes through 3/31/12.

This project will save the two project partners, Warwick Township and the Lititz Library 177,795 kWh annually, for a projected savings of $27,624.16. The projected energy savings includes 168,458 kWh for Warwick Township; 9,337 kWh for the Lititz Library. Each individual improvement either saves greater than 25% of the energy use for the system targeted, or saves, in the aggregate, for the particular building, greater than 25% of total energy use. The payback period, with grant, is estimated at 1.47 years. This project will create the full-time equivalent of at least 832 person-hours of work; or, one new, permanent, full-time job; 11 new, full-time, temporary jobs; and two new, part-time, temporary jobs. Conservation 46.52%

The project consists of the purchase and self-installation of 122 compressor optimization (control) units, and 200 LED Streetlight retrofits. The control units will be installed in a variety of locations, with a variety of different uses, including our commissary, recreation buildings, and cottages. The project will save 164,313 kwH/year of electricity and 9,045 therms/year of gas. The project will create or retain 7 jobs for both the manufacturer and the Masonic Villages combined. Combined Energy (electricity) savings per year equals 164,313 kwH/year (32%)

The project proposed the installation of a designed 64 (kW) solar system consisting of 320 two-hundred watt, photovoltaic panels on the existing Penn Township public works facility. The solar system will generate approximately 83,700 kilowatt hours (kWh) and provide roughly 75% of the electricity needed by the Penn Township Municipal Campus through renewable means. Conservation 65.86%

This project will improve the energy efficiency of 12 older buildings on the main campus of Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology in Lancaster, PA., as well as provide a positive environmental impact. The project includes the retrofitting of building lighting systems. It is projected, through an energy audit by an independent vendor, that implementing this lighting retrofitting plan, Stevens College will realize an annual minimum of 30.4% savings in energy bills. In the final analysis the environmental impact for the 12 buildings projects a savings of approximately 3,472 NOx, 6,037 lbs SO2, 1,320, 219 lbs of CO2 and 694,851 KWh based on current conditions and usage of the buildings. That equated into a 22.24 % ROI in approximately four years and a 44% KWh energy savings.

This project is designed to cover the installation of 1MW of combined heat and power at the Mount Joy Wire facility in Mount Joy, PA. Several types of CHP systems will be evaluated for the best economic fit for the heat and electricity requirements of the site.

Construciton and operation of a CHP plant. The wood fired boiler will use waste wood to produce heat and electicity. This CHP plant will have increased efficiency capacity, and be more environmental friendly. In addition the steam generator will produce the electricity. "CHP"

LCSWMA, in cooperation with PPL renewable Energy, will install two 1.5 megawatt wind turbines at the Authority's Frey Farm Landfill. This project will produce 7,764,000 Kwh of energy per year which will be sold to a direct consumer or the PJM grid.

The project provides financial assistance and services to prevent individuals and families from becoming homeless or help those who are experiencing homelessness to be quickly re-housed and stabilized. Funds will be used for activities to address the jurisdiction’s homelessness needs such as: financial assistance with rental payments; security deposits; utility payments or deposits; arrearages; moving costs; and, motel/hotel vouchers; and housing relocation and stabilization services such as case management; outreach and engagement; housing search and placement; legal services; and, credit repair.
