New business construction projects for commercial facilities involve a lot of equipment installation, such as lighting measures and other technologies. New facilities outfitted with energy-saving equipment can help companies save money from the onset. California offers the Modesto Irrigation District Commercial New Construction Rebate Program to improve energy efficiency and help offset installation costs.
The MPower Business New Construction Rebate Program provides cash incentives for using green energy equipment. This rebate program is available for current or prospective commercial, industrial and agricultural MID customers. Businesses who want to take advantage of the energy rebate program must have new construction projects that lower their electric energy usage by over 10%, be in use for at least five years and complete the project within a year after submitting a rebate application.
Many businesses are realizing the tremendous benefits of investing in energy efficiencies in their facilities. Energy-saving rebate programs give them the financial assistance they need to provide cost-effective upgrades for their businesses. Energy conservation projects for commercial new construction and remodeling projects save money through improved energy consumption.
California’s MPower Commercial New Construction Rebate Program issues rebates for almost any project that entails installation of energy efficiencies in new buildings or remodeling of existing facilities. Lighting rebate projects must have MID inspect the present condition of the lighting before new equipment is installed. Lighting rebate offers are only valid for new equipment, not rebuilt or used lighting fixtures. In addition, commercial, industrial and agricultural facilities can receive lighting rebates of between $25 and $95 per light fixture, depending on the wattage and description.
High bay fluorescents are typically designed to replace incandescent, mercury vapor T12 high output fluorescent lighting. The Modesto Irrigation District Energy Rebate Program offers their business customers help for improved lighting technology in their buildings to reduce energy costs and foster environmental efforts. This program expires on December 15, 2010, so interested businesses will need to act fast to get started with the application process by going to: www.mid.org.
