Franklin Energy Services has partnered with the Michigan Public Power Agency (MPPA), which is made up of 20 municipal utilities, to offer the Energy Smart Residential Energy Efficiency Rebate Program. Residential electric customers served by one of the 20 participating utilities are eligible for rebates on energy efficient upgrades. Purchased products must meet program standards in order to receive rebates, please refer to the Program Application for all equipment requirements and guidelines. The Energy Smart Program also offers a $50 rebate for allowing JACO (an appliance recycler contracted through Franklin Energy) to pick up and properly dispose of inefficient, yet still working, refrigerators and freezer units (Sturgis does not participate in the appliance recycling program).Four of the participating utilities (Chelsea, Grand Haven, Holland, Paw Paw) also offer free Direct Installs for owners of multi-family properties who are interested in upgrading faucet aerators, light bulbs, and showerheads.
Application forms for each utility may be found on the program web site (mienergysmart.com). Please call 877-NRG-SAV1 (877-674-7281) for further information about the Energy Smart Program. The following utilities participate:
