PPL Electric Utilities - Business Incentive Program

August 15, 2024

Summary

PPL Electric Utilities offers incentives on a variety of energy efficiency projects, including solar and CHP.

In 2023, the program design changed to offer energy-based incentives of 8 cents per kWh saved, calculated based on annual performance. The savings must be based on production estimates and annual consumption data or estimates and are subject to verification prior to full approval.

New construction projects will be vetted based on the PPL Electric service application. Total Resource Cost and incentives will be calculated based on customer's displaced energy.

Pre-approval for solar projects is required. To receive pre-approval, you must have a service and interconnection application submitted, as well as a signed IIR document with PPL Electric. For assistance, reach out to Businessaccounts@pplweb.com.
