With cooler temperatures of fall arriving, now is a good time to make energy efficiency upgrades for the upcoming colder months.
The City of Fort Morgan Light & Power Department, in partnership with its wholesale electric power supplier, the Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska, offers a suite of five programs that provide cash incentives for homeowners to make energy efficiency upgrades.
One such program provides a financial incentive for upgrading attic insulation on residential homes. The Attic Insulation Program provides cash incentives of $0.15 per square foot with a maximum incentive of $300 per existing residential dwelling for attic insulation.
The other programs include:
High Efficiency Heat-Up Program
Provides cash incentives from $400 to $3,000 to residential homeowners who are installing a new heat pump system to their residential single-family dwelling.
Smart Thermostat Program
Provides a cash incentive of up to $100 paid directly to residential customers to help cover the cost of installing a qualifying smart thermostat.
Cooling System Tune-Up Program
Provides a $30 cash incentive to residential homeowners who have their cooling system tuned up by a HVAC contractor, regardless of what type or age of cooling system (air conditioner/air or water source heat pump).
Commercial LED Lighting Program
Provides cash incentives paid directly to commercial customers to help cover the cost of lighting upgrades and replacements.
