How it works
Your utility pays for most of the upgrade. We make sure it does.
Utility and state programs fund efficiency upgrades for the facilities that use the most power. We confirm what yours pays, take it off the price before you order, and handle the paperwork and shipping.
Three steps to the net price
- 1Tell us about your facilityBuilding type, ZIP, and what you are looking to upgrade. Commercial, industrial, municipal, and institutional facilities, farms, and nonprofits all qualify.
- 2We find what you qualify forUtility, state, and federal programs fund efficiency upgrades. We match your project to the ones that apply, quote the net price, and handle every form.
- 3You pay the net price and we shipWherever the program allows, the incentive is applied before you order, so there is nothing to claim later and no waiting on a check.
After you send a request
What happens next, and when
1.Same day: a specialist reads it
A program specialist, not a queue, reads every request and calls or emails back the same business day with any questions about the facility.
2.Within a few days: the quote
A PDF on company letterhead listing each product with its list price, the rebate the utility pays, your net price and the program it comes from, with freight, tax status and lead time.
3.You approve; we file
With your approval, a recent utility bill and your tax-exempt certificate if you have one, we prepare the program paperwork and submit it for you.
4.We ship to the site
Stock products ship within days of the program approval, freight included, to the address on the quote. Nothing to claim afterward.
What a program asks for
- The first 3 pages of a recent utility bill, with a contact name, phone, and email for the facility.
- Your tax-exempt certificate, if applicable.
- A completed order form. We prepare this from your quote.
Some programs ask for a pre-approval or a photo of the existing fixtures; the quote says so when yours does.

Procurement
For buyers and purchasing offices
What a purchasing office, board or facilities manager asks before approving an order, answered once.
- Tax-exempt pricing
- Municipalities, schools, houses of worship and 501(c)(3) nonprofits are quoted without sales tax once we have your exemption certificate on file. Send it with your first request and every quote after is exempt.
- Purchase orders and terms
- We accept purchase orders from public agencies, school districts and established businesses. Net terms are available to qualified accounts on approval; otherwise payment is due with the order, by check, ACH or card.
- W-9 and vendor setup
- A W-9 and any vendor registration forms your purchasing office needs are sent on request, usually the same day.
- Freight included
- Program orders ship freight-included to the facility address on the quote. Lift-gate or inside delivery can be added when the site needs it; the quote says so.
- Lead time
- Stock products ship from the supply house within days. Anything built to order shows its lead time on the quote line so the project schedule is set before you commit.
- Returns and warranty
- Unopened stock products can be returned within 30 days; program rules may require the utility to be told. Manufacturer warranties (typically five years or more on LED fixtures) are handled through us, whatever the equipment.
- What the quote looks like
- A PDF on company letterhead: each product with its list price, the rebate the utility pays, your net price and the program it comes from, then freight, tax status and lead time. The same document your board or purchasing office can approve.
