Energy Efficiency Rebates
Businesses and consumers are often able to receive rebates on energy
efficiency products, technologies, or practices. Several states offer
programs.
Rebates from ENERGY STAR Partners may also be available.
To encourage customers to buy energy efficient products, ENERGY STAR
partners occasionally sponsor rebates on qualified products. LCRS
can help you identify organizations in your state that sponsor energy
efficiency programs . These offerings can include financial and
technical assistance to improve the energy efficiency of your business.
Program sponsor Partners include regulated utilities, publicly owned
utilities, and energy delivery companies; national, regional, state, or
local government entities; other organizations involved in coordinating
or administering energy efficiency or environmental education programs
that promote ENERGY STAR.
Are you having trouble getting energy efficiency projects approved
and implemented?
If so, LCRS can assist you with performance contracts and tax-exempt
lease-purchase agreements that may offer you a practical solution when
no money is available in the current budget for further improvements. We
can also provide clear financial reasoning and cost modeling, which
demonstrate that energy efficiency projects really can pay for
themselves within existing operating and capital budgets. We can
help you persuade the decision makers that implementing energy
efficiency upgrades is a good business decision and should be done as
soon as possible.
While the reasons for delaying projects may vary, most energy efficiency
projects stall due to one or a combination of the following perceived
barriers:
-
Lack of money.
-
Lack of time or personnel to design and plan the projects because of
other, higher priorities.
-
Lack of internal expertise to implement the projects.
-
Lack of "political will" within the decision making process.
