IAMU CFL Purchasing Rates
In order to provide the most competitive pricing to our members on a
variety of high quality, Energy Star rated CFLs, IAMU submitted a
Request for Proposal to multiple vendors. After carefully evaluating
the responses, IAMU selected the quote submitted by Service Concepts, a
new IAMU Gold Level Associate Member. The details of the price quotes
and bulb specifications that IAMU received are detailed in a memo for
your review. We trust that you will find the prices to be very
competitive and the bulbs of a high quality.
IAMU members can order directly from Service Concepts, who would ship to
you and bill your utility at IAMU member prices and terms.
Alternatively, if you prefer, IAMU can order on your behalf and bill for
costs (bulbs, shipping and staff time). The prices quoted for the
bulbs in the memo are valid for one year. If you would like to
order please contact Jonathan Roberts, at
jroberts@iamu.org or call (515)
289-1999 for any assistance or answers to any questions you may have.

Iowa Energizer Bulletin

that can be mailed to their residential customers. Four times a year, an
issue of the Iowa Energizer will be customized for each utility. Inside
pages of each Iowa Energizer will carry up-to-date information on energy
efficiency for residential applications. Contact John Burnett at
jburnett@iamu.org for more

Marketing Materials
Specially printed folders for
energy efficiency materials are now available for your utility to
purchase from IAMU. The folders are ideal for energy fairs, home
energy audits, grade school visits, and any other events featuring
contact between the utility and its customers. Beginning in 2009,
some customization of the folders, including options for utility logo
placement, will be available. Contact
Sandy Longfellow for more information or to place an order.
See a sample of the folder here.
HomeFitness Program
This is a program for utilities that don't have residential energy audit
programs of their own. Choose from a list of professional energy
auditors so that you can offer audits of your choice to residential
customers. IAMU can also develop marketing materials for your
program. To find out more about the program contact Joel Logan at
jlogan@iamu.org or 1-800-810-4268.

Utilities Board. Due on July 1 of every even-numbered year.

offerings of renewable energy. IAMU customizes marketing materials
(pamphlets and bill stuffers) for the participating utilities’ alternate
energy fund.
Biodiesel Updates
The IAMU biodiesel program aims to encourage the use of biodiesel in
stationary generators by electric utility members. IAMU facilitated a
series of biodiesel emissions tests in order to provide IDNR with
information to allow utilities to use biodiesel without having to
re-permit or do additional emissions testing.
