Installing new LED fixtures has the potential to save energy and reduce carbon emissions – positively impacting both your budget and the environment.
The benefits are so apparent, in fact, that utilities continue to increase the amount of money they’re putting into their rebate programs to incentivize commercial, industrial, and other facilities to upgrade outdated, energy-wasting lighting systems to energy efficient, DLC®-listed LED products.
Looking back at 2021 and 2022 trends, money for downstream (sent in after installation) and midstream (provided at the point of sale) rebate programs to encourage installation of LED lighting had a net positive increase. This trend doesn’t show any signs of slowing.
So, what does this mean for you?
How You Benefit from Rebates
A retrofit or new installation can require a significant upfront investment but is almost certain to be paid back quickly in the form of decreased energy costs, with rebates adding to the payback.
Utilities on the state and city levels, and utility companies offer rebates on energy efficient products like LEDs — especially beneficial for facilities in high KwH areas. Bonus programs are also available, depending on where you’re located and which products you purchase.
Between the monthly energy savings and rebates, there’s no doubt you’ll see a positive impact on your organization’s bottom line. There’s also the very real benefit of customer appreciation that comes from demonstrating that you’re “doing the right thing” for our environment.
