Small Business Program
Rebates covering up to 60% of the cost of efficient electric equipment — HVAC, refrigeration, weatherization — for NYSEG's smaller non-residential accounts.
Up to 60% of the cost of eligible electric equipment upgrades; gas-only customers get gas equipment rebates. Completing two or more projects unlocks bonus rebates (“Bundle Your Bonus”).
NYSEG non-residential customers using 110 kW or less per month (electric), or 5,000 therms or less per year (gas-only). Any contractor may do the work; the program's Trade Ally network is optional.

Apply through the NGAGE application portal linked from the program page, or call the implementation contractor (Franklin Energy) at 888-316-8023 and an Energy Advisor walks you through it. Contractors can file on your behalf.
