SEF of Central Eastern Pennsylvania Small Business Lighting Retrofit (PPL Territory)

September 01, 2009

Summary

Small companies or businesses that 100 employees or less, have operated at the same location as an PPL Electric Utilities customer for at least three years, and have a good-standing credit history with PPL Electric Utilities, may be eligible for a rebate on lighting replacement costs under this program. This program is only available for lighting retrofits that replace existing inefficient lighting systems and that have a cost of at least $2,500. In addition, projects must have started on or after July 14, 2008 in order to qualify. Applicants must be property or lease-holders and the building where measures will be installed must be 25,000 square feet or less. The rebate is calculated as 20% of the project cost up to a maximum rebate of $2,000. Project costs may exceed $10,000, but rebates will only be paid for the first $10,000. Applicants are encouraged to use products that are Energy Star qualified, or have similar energy efficient ratings. This is a rebate program rather than a financing program; however; financing assistance may be available for some applicants through the SEF. Businesses may only receive one rebate per business entity name. Program personnel may perform electrical energy audits on a random sample of completed projects. The application deadline for this program is August 31, 2009. Please consult the program website for additional details.
