It frustrating to work on a customer's RE system and have to tell them that 
they are being bamboozled by sales pitches for so-called energy saving 
devices. You might want to share this paper with your customers.

The latest Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) quarterly Energy 
Engineering Journal has an paper titled "Power Quality Solutions and Energy 
Savings - What is Real?"

See http://www.plantservices.com/wp_downloads/pdf/0903_Power_Quality.pdf

"The problem is that some of these solution providers have significantly 
overstated the savings and the customers are deceived. What these solutions 
provide excellent protection, they often provide very little, if any, energy 
savings."
