Some energy-saving upgrades don’t fit the mold – and that’s where custom incentives come in. These flexible, performance-based incentives are designed for projects that may save energy but fall outside Energy Trust’s standard offers, like advanced controls, bundled equipment upgrades or retro commissioning.

Energy Trust provides a free technical analysis to estimate savings and determine the incentive amount for custom projects. Pre-approval is required to receive custom incentives, so it’s important to contact us early in the process.

As a trusted trade ally, you play an important role in helping customers identify custom opportunities and navigate the process. See our recent blog post, Custom projects made easy: How to uncover energy savings in any project for the tools you need to answer customer questions, spot potential projects and keep everything moving smoothly from start to finish.

If you have questions or need more details about custom incentives, please contact the Existing Buildings trade ally team at existingbuildings@energytrust.org.
