ENERGY CONSERVATION REWARDS INCREASED
By John LaValley
CWEC Energy Specialist
Winter has been a little mild this year, but we still have a little time to enjoy the things we like most about the colder season before spring brings renewed life once again. Speaking of renewal, perhaps you have a project in mind for your home this year. Central Wisconsin Electric Cooperative (CWEC), your cooperative, offers energy conservation rebates through its Energy Conservation Rewards program. As of January 1, 2024, many of these offerings have increased for energy efficiency purchases including home heating and cooling fixtures, insulation, and Energy Star rated appliances.
For 2024, CWEC will no longer offer electric water heaters for sale to its membership. There have also been changes to the rebates offered for electric water heaters because of this. The cooperative is currently offering the following incentives for water heaters. To qualify for an incentive, the water heater must have a 50-gallon capacity.
- If you are constructing a new home or converting from a gas water heater to electric, you will now be eligible for a rebate that covers 50% of the new fixtures cost.
- If you are replacing your current electric water heater with another electric fixture, you will be eligible for a $200 rebate with the cooperative.
If you have any energy efficiency projects in mind for your home or business, please call the cooperative for more information on how you can achieve savings through the Energy Conservation Rewards program. We will accept any purchase made within 2024, throughout the remainder of the year.
A current list of rebate offerings can be found by visiting the CWEC website, or we can send these to you upon request. If you would like further information, please call CWEC Energy Specialist John LaValley at 715-677-2245 for more information.
