Dear Customer,

Thanks for your inquiry regarding NewPower's 500 home technology pilot in 
Houston, Texas.  Please note you do not need to be a NewPower electricity 
customer to participate in this pilot.  The technology pilot is a separate 
program.  If you have already signed up for this pilot through some other 
means (such as in the lobby of the Enron building or via fax) please 
disregard this message.  Sears will contact you to schedule you installation 
within a couple of weeks.

Below you will find the electronic version of the NewPower Connections Remote 
Energy Management Solution brochure and application (NewPower trifold.pdf).  
To participate in the pilot, simply:

Sears will call you in two to four weeks to schedule the installation.  
Remember, the NewPower Connections Remote Energy Management Solution pilot 
program is completely FREE to the first 500 participants.  Free hardware, 
free installation, free service calls, and no monthly service fees or hidden 
charges.  At the conclusion of the pilot, those first 500 pilot participants 
will be "Grandfathered" so Remote Energy Management will remain free to them 
should the service be continued as a real mass market product.  



Remember, to participate in the pilot, you must meet the following 
qualifications:
