3. Except for the pump VFD measure, equipment installed in fixed-in-place (solid set) systems is not eligible. Incentive is limited to two units per irrigated acre.

VFD = Variable Frequency Drive

1. You submit an application: After you identify a project (or work with us to identify a project(s) the first step is to submit a general application and provide your tax ID in a completed IRS Form W-9 so we (or our program administrator) can prepare a 1099-Misc. (if required) following the incentive payment.
2. We provide an energy analysis report: Before you remove existing equipment we need to establish an energy baseline. It is very important that we do this before you purchase anything new. Our analysis will identify efficiency options and help you understand the financial benefits of your investment. 
3. You sign an incentive offer: Sign an incentive offer before you begin project implementation. If you don’t have an incentive offer, you may not be able to receive an incentive.
4. You implement your project: Purchase and install qualifying equipment at an eligible location.
5. We provide a post-inspection: We may need to see that the new equipment is installed and operational. It can be a simple on-site inspection or it may require more formal savings verification. You’ll be told what the requirements will be in your energy analysis.
6. You receive a cash incentive: Congratulations! Within 45 days of final inspection, savings verification, and/or the receipt of all necessary cost documentation you will receive your incentive.

*The one-year simple payback cap means incentives will not be available to reduce the simple payback of a project below one year. If required, individual measure incentives will be adjusted downward pro-rata so the project has a simple payback after incentives of one year. To be eligible for energy efficiency project incentives, the project simple payback before incentives must not exceed eight years. Pacific Power may accept a project with a projected payback period in excess of eight years, if project benefits satisfy the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission's approved cost-effectiveness test as determined by Pacific Power.
