Alexandria Light and Power - Commercial Energy Efficiency Rebate Program
Administered by Alexandria Light and Power
As a commercial customer of Alexandria Light and Power, you can receive rebates for upgrading to energy-efficient equipment like LED lighting, heat pumps, water heaters, and HVAC systems through the Bright Energy Solutions program. Rebate amounts vary by equipment type and efficiency level, with incentives based on peak-season demand reduction (summer months) and annual energy savings; contact ALP at 320-763-6501 or visit their website to review eligible measures and submit an application. The program also offers custom rebates for energy-saving projects not on the standard list, subject to preapproval.
You can participate in ALP's Trade Ally contractor network to help commercial customers access Bright Energy Solutions rebates across lighting, HVAC, refrigeration, compressed air, and custom electrification projects. Equipment must meet specific energy efficiency standards (Design Light Consortium or ENERGY STAR certification for lighting, for example), and certain measures like quality HVAC installations can earn additional incentives of $100 or more. Preapproval is required for custom and electrification projects, so coordinate with ALP early in the sales process to ensure customer eligibility and maximize rebate value.
The Bright Energy Solutions program, administered by ALP in partnership with Missouri River Energy Services, provides rebates to commercial, industrial, and government customers across multiple measure categories including lighting, HVAC, food service, compressed air, and electrification. Incentive calculations use two approaches: a per-kW reduction basis for peak summer months (June–September) plus annual kWh savings for non-lighting measures; custom and electrification projects require preapproval. The program targets businesses seeking to reduce operating costs and carbon footprint, with outreach through Trade Ally contractors and energy consultation services.
