Get Rebates for Small Businesses
The SBDI rebates are for small business owners to help offset the cost of energy-saving upgrades that are cleaner, greener and more cost-effective. And, remember to save even more on energy through simple changes like cleaning or replacing HVAC air filters on a regular basis.
In 2022, our Michigan SBDI business customers saved almost 227,000 kWh with energy-saving projects. You helped the environment by reducing emissions equal to a gas-powered car driving 411,859 miles! *
