\u00a0Mass Save\u00ae GOES MOBILE TO HELP CUSTOMERS SAVE TIME AND MONEY<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

L<\/em>ight Bulb Finder mobile app takes the mystery out of selecting the most appropriate compact fluorescent bulb.<\/em><\/p>\n

BOSTON, Mass., September 22, 2011 \u2013 <\/strong>National Grid, Western Massachusetts Electric Company (WMECo), NSTAR Electric, Cape Light Compact and Unitil \u2014 as part of Mass Save\u00ae \u2014 introduce the Light Bulb Finder<\/em><\/strong>, a free smart phone application that helps customers find the energy efficient light bulbs that best match their light quality, fit and performance needs.<\/p>\n

The efficient light bulb market continues to expand as more bulb varieties \u2014 such as dimmable or three-way bulbs \u2014 become available. It can be difficult to know which newer model bulbs to choose when replacing older, less efficient bulbs.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur customers tell us it is difficult to compare incandescent light bulbs to compact fluorescents (CFLs), so selecting a bulb with the light quality and fit they are looking for can be troublesome,\u201d said Tony Fornuto, Program Administrator at WMECo, a sponsor of Mass Save. \u201cThis new smart phone app makes the selection and purchase process much easier. Helping consumers switch to efficient light bulbs is another way we can help them save money on their electric bills.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Light Bulb Finder <\/em><\/strong>app is available to Massachusetts electric utility and energy efficiency service provider customers as a free download on iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, and AndroidTM devices.\u00a0 To download the app, visit the app store on a mobile device and search for “Light Bulb Finder.” Customers begin by entering their zip code so that the app can connect them to bulb discounts available at local retailers and via the app.<\/p>\n

Users then enter information about their light fixture, current bulb and usage, and the app recommends the efficient bulb that best matches the desired appearance, light quality and usage. For each recommendation, the app provides the payback period, annual cost savings, bulb lifetime savings and annual CO2 emissions. Users can create shopping lists and purchase efficient bulbs directly through the app or in person at participating local retail stores identified by the app.<\/p>\n

The Light Bulb Finder <\/em><\/strong>is an energy efficiency resource offered by Massachusetts\u2019 electric utilities and energy efficiency service providers as part of Mass Save.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
