TVA - Commercial Energy Efficiency Rebate Program
Administered by TVA Energy Right
This program is designed for commercial and industrial businesses, not homeowners. Homeowners should contact their local utility or TVA for residential energy efficiency rebates.
Partner with TVA's Preferred Partners Network to help commercial clients access rebates on HVAC ($80–$1,000/ton), LED lighting (up to $28/fixture for fast-track retrofits or $0.15/kWh for standard upgrades), refrigeration equipment ($50–$200/linear foot depending on equipment type), and custom process upgrades ($0.18/kWh on first-year savings). Most programs require no pre-approval; apply within 6 months of installation through energyright.com or by contacting TVABusinessIncentive@tva.gov or 866-233-0450.
The TVA EnergyRight Business & Industry Incentives Program delivers rebates across HVAC, lighting, refrigeration, compressed air, variable speed drives, and custom efficiency projects to commercial and industrial customers in TVA's service territory. Incentives are calibrated by unit type ($/ton for HVAC, $/fixture for lighting, $/horsepower for drives) or energy performance ($0.10–$0.18/kWh depending on measure). Applications flow through the Preferred Partners Network; most tracks accept retroactive applications up to 6 months post-installation. Program staff manage approvals, verify savings calculations, and coordinate with local power companies and TVA Energy Experts (866-233-0450) to support customer engagement.
