Buildings in thousands of municipalities across the US are now eligible for lighting efficiency rebates from state organizations and local utilities. These programs provide customers with incentives to upgrade inefficient lighting systems which significantly reduces the initial cost. The incentives range anywhere from $.50 per lamp to $450 per fixture and include popular technologies like T8 lamps, ceramic metal halide fixtures, hardwired compact fluorescent fixtures, LED exit signs, sensors and much more.

 

Thanks in part to the The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, more and more areas of the country now have rebates available for commercial lighting upgrades. The map below shows the transformation of the rebate climate over the past twelve months. Now, organizations in 42 of the states have rebate programs available for energy efficiency lighting in commercial buildings.
