Commercial Efficiency Program Overview

There are three paths in the Commercial Efficiency Program; each one designed to fit the needs of a particular customer

  • Prescriptive Approach
    Offers incentives for choosing equipment from a pre-qualified list of energy-efficient measures.
  • Custom Approach
    Provides technical assistance, incentives and the flexibility to choose unique measures not on the Prescriptive list.
  • New Construction (Whole Building Design)
    A comprehensive approach in which you, your building design team and LIPA-supported experts work together, from concept to completion, to develop an energy efficiency plan specially designed for your entire building. \

By participating in this program, customer agrees that LIPA obtains and/or retains ownership of all rights to existing and future emissions credits, renewable energy credits, green tags, tradable renewable certificates and/or any and all other environmental benefits associated with the installation of the eligible equipment.
