Frequently Asked Questions

What is a utility-sponsored rebate program?

Utilities and energy efficiency program administrators invest in energy efficiency rebate programs to help their customers reduce their energy consumption, which reduces the need for infrastructure investments on the grid. The sponsors of these programs pay incentives to drive their customers to purchase equipment that uses less energy than the average model found on the market.

What is different about Instant Rebates for Life Sciences?

Instant Rebates provide the energy efficiency incentives directly on the customer’s invoice as a line-item discount. The customer doesn’t have to wait for a rebate check to arrive in the mail after they have installed their equipment. Instant Rebates allow customers to more easily factor the rebate into their purchasing decision.

What kinds of equipment are rebates available for?

Utility rebate programs often cover Ultra Low Temperature (ULT) Freezers, Laboratory Grade High Performance Refrigerators and Laboratory Grade High Performance Freezers. Please check the Program Materials under the Programs tabs for complete listings in specific territories.

What is high-efficiency equipment and what are the benefits?

High-efficiency equipment is often recognized by voluntary rating systems such as ENERGY STAR®, which set efficiency requirements along with performance requirements, so you know you won’t be sacrificing on performance for the sake of efficiency. This equipment is often manufactured with higher quality components that reduce energy consumption by between 10% and 70% annually compared to a standard model found in the market without the Energy Star certification.

Who is eligible for Instant Rebates for Life Sciences?

Non-residential natural gas and/or electric customers of the utility and energy efficiency program administrators of the programs may qualify for rebates. Customers must purchase their equipment from a participating dealer in order to receive the Instant Rebate. See the Programs page for more information on customer eligibility. You can also use our zip code look-up tool on the Programs page to input your project site’s zip code to determine if it is within an eligible program territory.
