ComEd, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas & North Shore Gas - Small Business Energy Savings Program
Administered by ComEd, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas, and North Shore Gas
Small business owners can request a free on-site energy assessment from a trade ally through ComEd, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas, or North Shore Gas, receiving free installation of energy-saving products and rebate recommendations to reduce electricity or gas costs. Contact a trade ally via the program website to schedule your assessment at no upfront cost.
Trade allies can offer customers free energy assessments and installations of approved energy-saving measures, positioning your business as a participant in a utility-backed efficiency program that removes cost barriers for small business customers and opens rebate opportunities for qualifying projects.
The program pools funding from four Illinois utilities to provide free assessments and installations targeting permanent reductions in electric or gas consumption for small commercial and industrial customers; trade allies deliver the on-site evaluations and installations, with projects evaluated for rebate eligibility based on verified energy savings (new construction excluded).
