Custom (Non-prescriptive) Programs
For equipment and conservation efforts outside Prescriptive requirements or not
covered by the Prescriptive Programs
***Preapproval required Rebate amounts and energy
savings vary by project
Programs include: Straight Custom Efficiency:
Windows Insulation Geothermal applications Roofing Window tinting
Energy Management Systems Business New Construction
Energy Design Assistance Data Center Efficiency
Custom Programs Preapproval letter will outline energy savings and
rebate amount Will also include time frame for implementation –
typically 24 months If project scope changes it may require reanalysis Rebate amounts vary with the project’s energy savings.
But the more energy your project saves, the more rebate dollars you earn – up to $400 per kilowatt (KW) of electricity and $4 per dekatherm (Dth) of gas saved.
CUSTOM Energy Management Systems
Colorado businesses can earn rebates on improvements to building controls with our Energy Management Systems (EMS) program.
We offer funds to help you automate energy intensive functions in order to power equipment only when needed. As a result, you get increased efficiency and lower energy bills year after year.
You must receive preapproval before you purchase or install any equipment.
CUSTOM Energy Management Systems
Purchase new equipment only (used equipment does not qualify)
Retrofit the EMS in an existing building (new construction projects may be eligible through our Business New Construction programs).
Potential projects include central controls for: Lighting HVAC CO2 Sensors and outside air management Pumps Boilers
