Efficiency Incentives
Tri-State has reduced approximately 30 megawatts in demand and saved 35,000 megawatt-hours in energy through its incentives program
The Energy Efficiency Credits (EEC) program has been in place since 1985 as a means to encourage and reward energy-efficient purchases and practices. The program provides consumers cash rebates when they install more efficient lighting, heating and cooling systems, and high-efficiency motors in irrigation, commercial and industrial applications.
Tri-State’s comprehensive offerings help end-use consumers better manage energy and lower the association’s cost of service. Because Tri-State is a wholesale power supplier, the association works closely with its membership to develop cost-effective programs that meet the unique needs of rural consumers across four states.
As new energy-saving devices are marketed to consumers, Tri-State continues to widen EEC eligibility. Each Tri-State member system tailors the program to meet specific goals locally. Most co-ops offer additional incentives to their customers, enhancing the Tri-State EEC program.
