Summary

Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) offers incentives for commercial and industrial customers to install energy-efficient heat pumps and replace/retrofit existing lighting systems. The Commercial Heat Pump Program offers rebates for air-source, water-source, and geothermal heat pumps. The OPPD Lighting Incentive Program offers rebates for a variety of fixtures. See the program website for the most up-to-date information.

Omaha Public Power customers can also participate in the utility's ECO 24/7 or "Innovative Energy Efficiency Project (IEEP) Incentive Program." Through the IEEP Program, commercial and industrial customers can recieve rebates for the cost of an energy study (50% of cost, up to $10,000 per building), and $500 per kW of peak demand reduced as a result of implementing the measures suggested by the energy study.

Both lighting and ECO 24/7 projects often qualify for low-interest loans from the state and federal tax advantages. Visit the program website or contact the utility directly for more information.
