Conservation Improvement Program!

The Lanesboro Public Utilities implemented a conservation improvement program in 2002! But now, the program is coming to your doorstep. Our conservation improvement program is here to promote conservation of our energy sources. Our program offers rebates for purchases of Energy Star Appliances, energy efficient light bulbs, and service and maintenance on your existing heating and cooling systems by area contractors.

Also, once the City website is in full operation all forms and information on the CIP program will be available online!

Please take a look at the information below and if you have any questions at any time, feel free to give us a call, stop in or drop us a note at the following:

What is a conservation improvement program?

Minnesota State Statute 216B.241 requires all Public Utilities to spend and invest for energy conservation improvements at 1.5% of their gross revenues. It is a program that expends these funds properly internally and externally to all of its customers to allow them to save money on their purchases, but also to save money by reduced energy bills! Not only that, but it also saves on the environment and promotes energy efficiency!

How does the Lanesboro Public Utilities plan to expend its funds?

Beginning in 2006, the Lanesboro Public Utilities is offering rebates on ENERGY STAR qualified energy star energy efficient appliances, rebates on fluorescent and high-intensity discharge lamps & service provided by local contractors on specific existing operating systems!

WE WANT TO HELP YOU SAVE MONEY NOW AND IN THE FUTURE!

CONSERVATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM

We are offering rebates to customers who install energy efficient products to promote energy efficiency! Not only will you save money on the original purchase, you will continue to save money every month with reduced electricity bills. Whether you are a residential customer or a business customer you can improve your bottom line and the environment, with rebates on ENERGY STAR qualified Energy Star Equipment such as:

  • Washing Machine: $25.00
  • Clothes Dryer: $25.00
  • Dishwasher: $25.00

Also, when you buy energy efficient fluorescent light bulbs and high efficiency discharge lamps you can get a rebate of up to $2.00/bulb. You must verify the type of bulb before purchase to be sure it qualifies for a rebate! Each household/business is allowed to apply for up to 10 light bulb rebates per year!

If your central air or furnace seem to need a tune up, once a year you can get a $25.00 rebate from us when our area contractors perform a maintenance and service check up on the equipment!

It is easy to take advantage of our great rebates. If a recent purchase qualifies pick up a rebate application from our office, or if you have selected an area contractor they will have them too. In the future you will be able to download this information and forms from the City website once it is implemented.
