Make the switch with our LED lighting incentive.
Lightbulb moment: Upgrade your interior, exterior and street lighting to lower your energy costs. We are offering an incentive of $0.10/kWh for indoor and exterior LED lighting upgrades or a flat rate of $4.00 per 4’ linear LED tube replacement.
Introducing the new Fast Track Lighting incentive.
Upgrading to LED lighting just got easier. With our new Fast Track Lighting incentive, pre-approval is not required. That means you can switch to LED lighting quickly and start saving energy.
Illuminate your workplace with energy-efficient solutions.
The LED lighting incentives from TVA EnergyRight® and your local power company can improve the quality of light in your facility while helping you save on energy and maintenance costs.
LED lights use less energy than incandescent or fluorescent bulbs and newer LED options can create a more vibrant work environment for your employees or enhance security outside of your facility. Features like occupancy sensors and photocells can conserve energy by automatically turning lights on and off when not needed.
Benefits of LED lighting
Lower your monthly energy bill.
Minimize waste heat or heat gain.
Lower your carbon footprint.
Reduce maintenance costs.
Compatible with occupancy sensors.
Improve workplace visibility and safety.
