Columbia Rural Electric Association - Commercial Energy Efficiency Rebate Program

This program is for commercial customers of Columbia Rural Electric Association who want to upgrade to energy-efficient equipment like heat pumps, smart thermostats, or variable frequency drives—you'll receive rebates as credits on your monthly electric bills. To apply, download the relevant rebate application from the program website, submit it along with documentation of your installation, and allow 4-6 weeks for processing; specific rebate amounts are determined case-by-case based on available funding.

Columbia Rural Electric Association's commercial rebate program provides your customers with incentives for installing connected thermostats, ductless heat pump retrofits/upgrades, standard heat pump upgrades, variable frequency drives on air handling units, variable refrigerant flow systems, and advanced rooftop controls. You'll need to ensure customers submit the appropriate application forms (Commercial Energy Efficiency Rebate Application plus measure-specific forms) with complete documentation, and note that rebate amounts vary by project and are subject to funding availability.

This case-by-case rebate program serves commercial members of Columbia Rural Electric Association across multiple efficiency measures (thermostats, heat pumps, VFDs, VRF systems, rooftop controls) with incentives delivered as bill credits. Processing takes 4-6 weeks; rebate amounts and eligibility are determined individually based on measure-specific requirements (found in informational sheets) and current funding availability, with different application procedures for projects completed before or after April 1, 2022.
