ComEd and Nicor Energy Efficiency Programs

The Energy Center of Wisconsin came in to our office to give a lunch presentation on the work they are currently undergoing in conjunction with both ComEd and Nicor's Energy Efficiency Programs.  I found this to be a very interesting program and only hope that it continues to grow, though I was sad that I am not currently building any new construction that qualifies for the program, though I will keep it in mind going forward. The basic gist is if you have a building that is a new commercial building of 50,000 SF or more you can qualify to work with the Energy Center to evaluate your building for efficiency and see if there is both more you can do and if you can qualify for some rebates or incentives from both ComEd and Nicor.  Basically, they are paying for some of your "green" upgrades.  ComEd has offers for residential users as well, including cash for your old appliances, and a home energy assessment, I have included that link below for your perusal. Feel free to read more about all three programs:
