What does the SBES provide?
The Small Business Energy Savings program provides both guidance and assistance to small business owners looking to make their business more energy efficient as well as saving money on energy costs.
What would this include?
A free energy-use assessment of small businesses. A list of recommendations for additional changes and upgrades that can further improve the energy efficiency of a small business and that qualify for rebates of up to 50 percent through programs offered by ComEd, Nicor Gas, North Shore Gas and Peoples Gas. An energy advisor will conduct a FREE on-site energy assessment valued at more $500 and provide free installation of energy saving products. Participants receive a report recommending energy saving changes and upgrades, such as more efficient facility lighting, exit signs and natural gas saving products that can further improve the energy efficiency of a business, and further improve your bottom line.
Is there any commitment after having an energy assessment?
