Water heater rebates - Before purchasing a new electric water heater, be sure to review Frontier Power's rebates. Rebates for TRADITIONAL ELECTRIC WATER HEATERS do require a radio controlled switch be installed. HEAT PUMP TYPE WATER HEATERS 55 gallons and under may qualify for a $400 rebate (no radio controlled switch required on heat pump type water heaters). Solar and on-demand water heaters are not eligible for our rebates.
Radio controlled switches - This is a device placed on your electric water heater which allows Buckeye Power to shut your heater down temporarily should a peak alert arise (coldest or hottest day of the year). Each member utilizing a radio control switch will receive $25 credit on their bill every December. Please note: Radio controlled switches CANNOT be installed on heat pump type water heaters.
Cool Returns - This program offers a one time $100 rebate to get into the program. A $4 credit on your Frontier Power electric bill for the months of June, July, August and September will apply to your bill every year you have the switch. A device, much like a radio control switch used on water heaters, will be placed on your central air conditioning unit. Your air conditioning unit is controlled up to 40% during peak alerts, so you will not be without air conditioning completely. Please note, NO WINDOW AIR CONDITIONERS are eligible for this program.
Energy Star Refrigerators, Freezers, and Air Conditioners - Replace and discard your old refrigerator and/or freezer with a new Energy Star rated qualifying refrigerator or freezer and receive $100 rebate. New units must be Energy Star rated and between 10 - 30 cubic feet. Energy label and receipts are required. Central Air units labeled Energy Star qualify for a rebate as well.
Commercial & Industrial Custom Lighting Program - This is a custom program to allow a wide range of energy efficient lighting retrofit upgrades for non-residential member facilities. Applicable for LEDs in new construction or facility additions, but not applicable for installation of additional lighting. This rebate is based upon total lamp watts saved, not to exceed 50% of the project cost. Re-lamping allowable only if it includes a technology upgrade. Requires co-op visit to facility before and after project completion.
Commercial & Industrial Energy Audit Program - This program encourages energy audits and implementation of recommended energy efficiency improvements. Rebate requires contractor invoice and does not include labor, and is not to exceed 50% of audit cost and/or improvement cost.
