The Clean Energy Resource Teams project is a public-private partnership staffed by: the University of Minnesota Extension and Regional Sustainable Development Partnerships, Great Plains Institute, Southwest Regional Development Commission, The Minnesota Project, and the Minnesota Department of Commerce, Division of Energy Resources.
CERT is pleased to announce a new effort to support Minnesota service stations interested in swapping out their canopy lighting for more efficient LEDs. The program includes a bulk buy, utility rebates, and free technical assistance.
The Clean Energy Resource Teams can help you:
- Participate in a bulk buy to get lower prices
- Access quality canopy lighting products
- Reduce upgrade costs further with utility rebates
Why move forward with this improvement?
- Project can pay for itself through the cost savings from reduced energy use in 3 to 4 years without utility rebates
- Utility rebates can vary from $200 to $3,500 and if sought, could bring the payback down to 1.5 years
- Clean, bright white lighting attacts new customers to your business and provides an attractive look and safety
- Less time pulling out the ladder to replace bulbs means fewer maintenance costs and a safer work environment
