Rebate application
One form captures who you are, which utility serves the site, and whether the work is a retrofit or new construction—details programs use to route incentives. Submissions go into OrderJunky's lead systems with optional confirmation email when email is configured.

Questions about energy rebates
Utility territories, retrofit versus new construction, prescriptive versus custom incentives, and what happens after you apply.
- What is the Order Junky energy efficiency rebate program?
- It is a single intake path to document eligible equipment upgrades, align with utility incentive categories, and get coordinated support. You submit one application on this page; follow on paperwork depends on your utility and project stage.
- Why does the form ask for my electric utility first?
- Incentive availability, budgets, and rules are tied to the utility that serves the meter. Larger investor owned utilities often run formal energy efficiency programs funded through ratepayer collections, while some cooperatives or small municipals have limited or no comparable funding. Naming the utility up front helps route serious opportunities quickly.
- What is the difference between a retrofit and new construction for rebates?
- Programs treat existing equipment replacements differently than first time installs in new buildings. Measurement assumptions, baseline energy use, documentation, and sometimes incentive rates differ. Selecting the correct path avoids rework when the utility reviews your project.
- Does every utility territory qualify for the same rebate amounts?
- No. Dollar caps, cost effectiveness tests, eligible equipment lists, and custom versus prescriptive paths vary widely. Even within a state, two neighboring territories can have different budgets and caps. Your coordinator confirms what applies after reviewing your site details.
- Are there maximum rebate amounts per customer or per project?
- Many programs cap incentives so one large project cannot consume the entire annual budget. Caps can be dollar limits, percentages of installed cost, or both. Large facilities should plan early reservations or pre approvals where programs offer them.
- Which equipment types are most commonly supported?
- LED horticultural and commercial lighting, efficient HVAC and dehumidification controls, pump and irrigation upgrades, premium motors, refrigeration improvements, and solar or storage where local rules permit incentives.
- If I already received a rebate on LED lighting, can I rebate a second LED upgrade?
- Often incentives assume a minimum useful life for the first installation. A later LED to LED efficiency jump may still qualify, but the incremental savings can be smaller and some programs adjust or prorate when prior incentives were paid on the same load. Outcomes depend on the specific utility rules and documentation.
- What is the difference between prescriptive rebates and custom incentives?
- Prescriptive paths use published tables for defined equipment swaps. Custom paths rely on engineered savings calculations, detailed costs, and sometimes measurement and verification. Custom work takes longer but can be appropriate for large or non standard facilities when savings are well documented.
- Do labor, recycling, and soft costs count toward rebate calculations?
- Program rules differ. Some administrators cap incentives at documented equipment plus allowable installation costs, while others emphasize cost benefit tests that include complete project economics. Incomplete cost documentation can understate eligible spend, so invoices and scopes should be thorough.
- Can Order Junky help finance equipment while a rebate is pending?
- Business financing may be available for qualifying purchases placed through Order Junky. Financing is separate from utility incentives; ask your sales contact for current options, rates, and eligibility.
- What happens after I submit the rebate application on this page?
- Your details route through the same lead systems as other Order Junky inquiries, with optional confirmation email when messaging is configured. A specialist reviews utility fit, scope, and next documentation steps, then guides you through reservations, installs, and post verification as required.
- Why do some rebate projects fall through after initial review?
- Funding windows close, engineering shows lower savings than expected, equipment selections change, or financing shifts scope. Contingent incentive dollars are not guaranteed until the program issues a reservation or written approval and you meet all post conditions.
