Energy Smart Programs offered to City of Sturgis Customers

Commercial & Industrial Prescriptive and Custom Incentives

The prescriptive program offers incentives when replacing inefficient equipment with high efficiency technologies on a one-for-one basis. If your project is among those listed on the prescriptive portion of this application form, simply complete the form and submit for your incentive. All prescriptive energy-efficiency projects must receive written pre-approval before the project is initiated.

Energy Smart has made several exciting changes to the 2012 Commercial and Industrial program. NEW INCENTIVES are now available for LED lamps and fixtures, and HID replacement systems using LEDs or induction lighting. Incentives for HVAC controls, variable frequency drives (VFDs), commercial refrigeration systems, and ENERGY STAR® commercial kitchen equipment have also been added to the application.

The instructions have been streamlined and simplified to make the application process easier. The Lighting Equipment Guidelines have been updated, and Equipment Guidelines have been added for Mechanical and Miscellaneous Equipment. Also, there is now a Sample Quote or Invoice included in the application, which will show you exactly what is needed to help speed up the entire process. Finally, pre-approvals will no longer be required for Compact Fluorescent Lamps and Fixtures (CFL), LED Lamps and Fixtures, Vending Machine Controllers, Intelligent Surge Protectors, and Pre-Rinse Sprayers.

Energy efficiency improvements that are not included in the prescriptive portion of the incentive application may qualify for custom incentives. See the "Custom" tab on the form below. Download the incentive application here and call the program office at 877-674-7281 to discuss your project. Custom incentives must receive written pre-approval before the project is initiated.
