Earn incentives for industrial capital improvements

Our Industrial Custom Capital Grants program offers incentives for energy-efficient upgrades in industrial facilities. If you’re planning a capital project for your industrial site that demonstrates energy savings and is cost-effective, PSE may be able to help pay for it with a custom capital grant.

Common measures incentivized through this program include compressed air and vacuum systems; industrial refrigeration systems; VFD; dust-collection systems; controls; process heating and cooling systems; pumping systems; and manufacturing process improvement.

What you get

The Industrial Custom Capital Grants program pays electric and gas incentives, which can cover up to 70% of the total cost of equipment and installation. Incentives are for qualifying upgrades only, and current rates are listed below.

 $0.45 per kWh saved

 $8 per therm saved

 Up to 70% of eligible project costs

There are also incentives available to pay and support operation and maintenance implementation opportunities within your facilities with a custom O&M grant. This program can support your O&M projects which may require internal and/or external labor and materials. Some typical O&M projects include:

• Compressed air leak detection and repair
• Air compressor system optimization
• Refrigeration system optimization
• Dust collection system optimization
• HVAC system optimization

 $0.07 per kWh saved

 $1 per therm saved

 Up to 100% of eligible project costs

PSE engineers are here to help. Get in touch with us early in the upgrade process so that we can let you know if your project qualifies, and then we’ll help you maximize your energy efficiency and custom capital grant.
