I'm not the rah-rah type when it comes to lowering global temperatures, carbon footprints, saving the planet, etc. The planet got along fine before I arrived and I suspect that it will get along just fine after I leave. But the money-saving aspect does interest me. Not only that but I suspect it adds to the resale value of the house as well.
Also, if you happen to sign a NO COST type contract, you will find you cannot cancel the contract, and the new home owner MUST take over the contract. I have seen several news articles where it was reported this was a deal breaker.
