Industrial and Agricultural Production Efficiency Program

This program is not available to homeowners. Energy Trust of Oregon's Industrial and Agricultural Production Efficiency Program serves only industrial and agricultural business customers of specific utilities (Portland General Electric, Pacific Power, NW Natural, Cascade Natural Gas, and Avista) who contribute to the Public Purpose Charge. To see if your business qualifies for rebates on equipment like motors, lighting, irrigation systems, or custom efficiency projects, contact Energy Trust directly to discuss your specific facility and energy needs.

You can help industrial and agricultural customers access rebates for equipment upgrades including motors and variable frequency drives, lighting and controls, compressed air systems, duct sealing, insulation, irrigation equipment, greenhouse upgrades, and custom efficiency projects. Eligible customers must be utility account holders contributing to the Public Purpose Charge; coordinate with Energy Trust on project pre-approval, as rebates and processes vary by project type and are subject to funding availability. Positioning your firm as a trusted partner who understands Energy Trust's approval requirements will strengthen customer value propositions.

Energy Trust of Oregon administers rebates for both industrial and agricultural sectors across five utilities' service territories, with funding tied to the Public Purpose Charge mechanism. The program covers a broad technology portfolio—from standard equipment replacements (motors, lighting, HVAC, compressed air) to strategic energy management and operations improvements—with custom projects available pending approval. Target demographics include manufacturers and agricultural operations (irrigation, greenhouse, nursery facilities); rebate amounts and eligibility vary by project, making pre-qualification and ongoing communication essential to manage participation and funding allocation.
