Vermont Gas - Commercial Energy Services
Administered by Vermont Gas
Vermont Gas offers point-of-purchase instant rebates for high-efficiency heating, water heating, and other commercial equipment installed by December 31, 2026—the rebates are already applied at your contractor's distributor, so confirm the discount appears in your final bill. Rebate amounts range from $150 for ENERGY STAR smart thermostats to $5,000 for large boilers (500–800 MBH at 94%+ thermal efficiency), with the Commercial Energy Services team available at (802) 951-0321 to discuss custom projects.
Vermont Gas's instant rebate program eliminates paperwork by applying rebates at the point of purchase through local distributors, making it simpler to pass savings to customers on qualifying equipment installed before 12/31/2026. You should confirm rebate amounts are deducted from the distributor invoice and advise customers of the savings; equipment must meet specified efficiency standards (AFUE, UEF, or thermal efficiency verified through AHRI or ENERGY STAR), and projects outside standard parameters can be custom-evaluated by contacting Efficiency@vermontgas.com.
The program delivers instant rebates at point-of-purchase through local distributors for VGS commercial and industrial customers upgrading heating systems, water heaters, and related equipment in existing buildings, with guaranteed rebate levels through 12/31/2026 and potential changes in 2027. Funding covers a tiered structure (e.g., $1,000–$1,200 for small boilers, $600–$1,000 for tankless water heaters) based on efficiency ratings; case-by-case evaluation is available for non-standard projects via the Commercial Energy Services team, targeting commercial, industrial, nonprofit, government, and contractor sectors seeking to reduce operating costs and carbon footprint.
