Program Profiles
ELECTRIC MOTOR REBATE PROGRAMS
At least eleven rural cooperatives (see below) are participating
in a program that provides financial rebates to rural customers
who retrofit electric motors, replace fossil-fueled motors, or install
new energy-efficient electric motors. The primary sponsor of this
program is the
Tri-State Generation
and Transmission Association.
Rebates apply to the installation of a new motor from 10 to 200
horsepower and which is to operate for a minimum of three months
each year or a minimum 15% load factor. The rebate is offered at
two levels, dependent upon the motor's
National Electric Manufacturers Association
efficiency rating:
|
Motor Efficiency
|
Rebate
|
| NEMA high-efficiency motor |
$20/hp
|
| NEMA standard-efficiency motor |
$10/hp
|
Most co-ops will also pass on a $1.50/hp rebate for Wiring Assistance
if the motor replaces a fossil-fueled engine, or is a new installation.
Rebate applications must be completed within 180 days of pump
motor installation.
