        Subpart C_Energy Audits and Energy Conservation Measures

 

Sec.  965.304  Order of funding.



    Within the funds available to a PHA, energy conservation measures 

should be accomplished with the shortest pay-back periods funded first. 

A PHA may make adjustments to this funding order because of insufficient 

funds to accomplish high-cost energy conservation measures (ECM) or 

where an ECM with a longer pay-back period can be more efficiently 

installed in conjunction with other planned modernization. A PHA may not 

install individual utility meters that measure the energy or fuel used 

for space heating in dwelling units that need substantial 

weatherization, when installation of meters would result in economic 

hardship for residents. In these cases, the ECMs related to 

weatherization shall be accomplished before the installation of 

individual utility meters.
