This powerpoint presentation addresses use of capacity buy-back vs. straight rebate, and uses toilet rebate programs as an example of capacity buy-back programs. It demonstrates the higher potential for water savings in the CII sector than in the ICI sector. CII water audits are outlined, along with how capacity buy-back works and how to set rates. Conclusions were: accept the principle of capacity buy-back;
toilet rebate programs work on same principle;
actual value of rebate, within reason, not too
important;
most savings are from reduced purchases over time;
acceptable rebate somewhere around $1 per g/d;
approximately 3x more cost-effective than toilet rebates;
rebate used to motivate customers; conduct audits in "staged" approach;
if there are no savings opportunities, may
complete audit in a couple of hours; conduct "back of the envelope" calculations to
identify areas of opportunity;
monitor "pre" and "post" water demands of
opportunities, quantify savings; and,
pay rebate based on limiting criteria.
