Only enrolled Energy Trust Business Lighting trade allies* may offer incentives to their customers for qualifying lighting projects.

Trade Ally Enrollment

For information on becoming a Business Lighting trade ally, see Part 2, Section 4 of the Business Lighting Program guide. To begin the application process online, visit the trade ally enrollment page.

If you have questions about your enrollment status, email lighting@energytrust.org or call 1.800.326.2917.

*Energy Trust will continue allowing contractors to enroll as trade allies, but we will not accept incentive applications from non-trade allies, or directly from customers who are planning to install their own projects.

All projects submitted for an incentive agreement must use Lighting Tool v2025.3  (the version number is noted at the top of the 100L tab).
