FINANCING & INCENTIVES

THE PROJECT PAYS FOR ITSELF SOONER THAN YOU THINK.

Most facilities delay energy work because of the capital, not the case for it. We find the incentive programs your project qualifies for, and we bring financing that can cover the rest — so the work can start without a line in next year’s budget.

WE KNOW WHICH PROGRAMS APPLY, AND HOW TO WIN THEM.

We track utility, federal, and state incentive and grant programs across the country. Our specialists find the right program for each commercial and industrial customer, prepare the application, and handle the compliance requirements that come with it. In many cases the incentive is applied as partial payment, so it comes off your cost rather than arriving as a check months later.

THREE WAYS TO PAY FOR IT.

Not every project should be a capital project. Depending on the work and where your facility sits, there is usually a path that requires little or nothing up front.

Energy-as-a-Service

No capital investment. You pay for the outcome, the savings start immediately, and your capital stays in the core business.

On-Bill Funding

No money up front, with payments appearing as a separate line item on your utility bill. Terms typically run 36 to 84 months, and some programs let you delay the first payment for up to 24 months.

C-PACE

Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy: no money down for qualifying efficiency, renewable, and water-conservation work, repaid through your property tax bill over terms as long as 20 years. Ask us whether C-PACE is available where your facility is.

ONE TEAM, ONE BRANDED SOLUTION.

The people arranging the funding are the people doing the installation. That means the scope the incentive was approved against is the scope that gets built, and the documentation the program requires gets produced by the team that did the work.
