Stay up to date on incentive increases and program enhancements 

We recently introduced incentive increases that lower the cost of energy efficiency projects. Win more work by bringing these extra savings to your customers.

Direct Discount Program: 

As of July 1, 2024, incentives on interior lighting and energy-efficient equipment rose from $0.10/kWh to $0.15/kWh. In addition to the incentive increase, bulbs and tubes now qualify for an incentive through the Direct Discount Program.

Instant Discounts for Lighting: 

Pre-approval is only required for interior projects receiving an incentive of over $20,000 — an increase from the previous $3,000 requirement. There is no pre-approval requirement for exterior lighting projects.

Custom projects: 

Custom projects, including solar and CHP, will now receive an incentive of $0.08/kWh — an increase from $0.06/kWh for custom and $0.03 for solar and CHP.

5 great reasons to discuss energy efficiency with your customers

3. Environmental impact: Bringing these solutions to your customers can help them achieve their sustainability goals.
4. Compliance and incentives: Improving energy efficiency is important for meeting regulatory requirements and also brings incentive opportunities.
