Emerald PUD - Commercial and Industrial Energy Efficiency Rebate Program
Administered by Emerald People's Utility District
This program is not available for residential customers; it applies only to commercial, industrial, agricultural, and federal government facilities. If you own or operate a non-residential building, Emerald PUD offers rebates on equipment like lighting, heat pumps, refrigeration systems, and custom energy efficiency projects—contact Emerald PUD directly or visit their program website for details on eligible measures and application procedures.
Emerald PUD partners with regional trade allies to deliver custom rebate projects for commercial and industrial customers, including facility assessments, equipment recommendations, and economic analyses. To participate as a contractor or trade ally, contact Emerald PUD directly; the program covers prescriptive rebates for specific equipment (amounts vary by capacity and efficiency) and custom projects like adjustable speed drives, air compressor controls, and refrigeration upgrades.
Emerald PUD administers this program in partnership with Bonneville Power Administration, serving all non-residential sectors (commercial, industrial, agricultural, and federal) within its service territory. The program delivers both prescriptive rebates for standard equipment and custom rebates for efficiency improvements—trade allies conduct on-site visits, economic analyses, and recommendations to qualifying applicants; specific rebate amounts and eligibility thresholds are managed through the program's technical review process.
