Save Money on Projects for Your Business
I&M’s prescriptive rebates make it easy for you to save energy, help the environment and improve your bottom line. Cash rebates paid per unit installed help offset the cost of energy-saving projects so you can keep making the right choices for your business.
Also, check out I&M’s energy tips for ways to reduce energy, like conducting a nighttime audit to see what might be turned on that shouldn’t be.
In 2019, our business customers saved over 41 million kWh with Prescriptive projects. That’s equal to the emissions produced by over 20 tanker trucks of gasoline! Over $2 million in rebates was paid to our Prescriptive business customers in 2019.*
