Oklahoma Municipal Power Authority - Demand and Energy Efficiency Program (DEEP)
DEEP provides matching funds to reduce your electric bills through energy-efficient upgrades like lighting, geothermal heat pumps, and air/dual-fuel heat pumps—with incentives calculated case-by-case based on your estimated savings and peak demand reduction. To apply, submit a complete application with detailed project plans including labor, equipment, and material costs through the program website or by contacting OMPA directly.
You can help eligible commercial, industrial, public sector, and nonprofit customers in OMPA member cities access rebates that match their energy efficiency investments in lighting, heat pump systems, and other measures. Incentives are determined individually based on project specifics and summer peak demand impact, with projects over $100,000 requiring OMPA board approval; note that outdoor lighting (canopies, parking lots, etc.) is excluded from rebates.
DEEP is a matching-fund program targeting summer peak demand reduction in OMPA member cities across commercial, industrial, public sector, and nonprofit sectors. All projects receive individual evaluation based on estimated energy and demand savings; incentive awards cannot exceed project labor and material costs, and awards above $100,000 need board approval. The program aims to control rate growth and defer capacity additions while helping eligible facilities reduce operating costs.

Program summary
The Oklahoma Municipal Power Authority (OMPA) offers the Demand and Energy Efficiency Program (DEEP) to eligible commercial, industrial, public sector, and non-profit customers served by OMPA member cities. This program encourages facilities to make energy efficient upgrades which cut summer peak demand. OMPA will provide financial incentives, and in some cases match the energy efficient investment of the facility. Incentives received cannot exceed the cost of labor and materials for any project. All projects are evaluated on a case-by-case basis and incentives vary based upon the estimated savings and peak demand impact. Upgrades may include lighting, geothermal heat pumps, air source heat pumps, and dual fuel heat pumps. Incentives above $100,000 require approval by the OMPA board. Commercial customers are eligible for both DEEP and WISE rebates, although they will only receive an incentive check from one program.
Interested customers must submit a complete application, including a full project description with a cost summary for labor, equipment and materials. Applications may be found on the program website listed above. Contact OMPA for any other information on this program or view the customer brochure.
