Summary:
City Water Light and Power offers three rebates to Springfield residential customers for increasing the energy efficiency of their homes. Customers interested in the water heater rebate must be pre-certified by CWLP before removing existing gas water heaters and before purchasing or installing new electric water heaters in their new or existing homes. CWLP requires a post installation inspection before awarding the rebate. Visit the website for more details and application forms. Rebates are available only to CWLP electric customers.
The utility also offers a refrigerator recycling program to its residential customers that provides a $50 rebate and free collection of the old appliance. In order to qualify, the refrigerator being recycled must be operable, have been manufactured prior to 1993, and be 10-27 cubic feet in size.
CWLP also offers a home energy audit for which customers can receive a full refund as well as up to another $25 in rebates if they enact the measures recommended by the auditors
