Stacked Incentives: Co-Funding Water Customer Incentive Programs

Authored by: Sarah Diringer and Morgan Shimabuku

Water utilities throughout the United States offer customer incentives to motivate action and foster engagement with their customers. Stacked incentives are customer incentive programs that are co-funded by two or more separate entities to motivate voluntary action on public or private property. Pacific Institute’s report defines stacked incentives, highlights successful examples throughout the United States, and identifies best practices for water utilities and other organizations to collaborate on these programs.
