$18 MILLION IN GAS COMPANY BUSINESS REBATES AVAILABLE

Utility offers incentives to improve energy efficiency

The Southern California Gas Co. (The Gas Company) is offering more than $18 million in rebates and incentives to its business customers this year for making their business operations more energy-efficient.

“On top of the incentives, the savings continue with lower monthly energy bills from the reduced use of natural gas,” said Mark Gaines, The Gas Company’s director of customer programs.

Virtually any of the utility’s 250,000 business customers can benefit from these programs.  The Gas Company helps meet a variety of needs by offering a broad mix of energy-efficiency programs, including:

— The Business Energy-Efficiency Program, which provides incentives of up to $1 million per customer, per year for equipment replacement and/or improving business processes;

— The Express Efficiency Rebate Program, which offers rebates of up to $200,000 per customer, per year to offset the cost of new, energy-efficient equipment;

— The Savings-By-Design Program, which provides financial incentives of up to $150,000 per commercial customer and $500,000 per industrial customer, encouraging energy-efficiency improvements in conjunction with expanding existing facilities, adding new facilities, or adding new equipment;

— The Industrial End User Program, offered at no charge, which helps industrial customers work through technical issues to identify and quantify cost savings from complex energy-efficiency projects; and,

— The Advanced Home Program, which encourages builders to develop new single- family and multi-family homes that incorporate sustainable design and higher energy-efficiency standards.
