These KCPL energy efficiency programs help reduce operating costs and increase efficiency
- necessary for operating any successful businesses - by providing incentives that
lower the cost of identifying and purchasing energy efficient equipment for use in
your facilities.
Equipment eligible for KCPL rebates include high efficiency lighting, air conditioning,
heating systems, motors, refrigeration, energy management systems, etc.
Commercial/Industrial Lighting Energy Audit
A lighting energy audit can help identify ways to improve your facility's lighting
energy efficiency. KCPL customers who have a lighting energy audit performed by Weeks
Electric are eligible for a rebate that covers up to 50% of the cost of the lighting
energy audit. KCPL Rebates are provided once you install energy efficient lighting
equipment that is recommended by the KCPL lighting energy Audit Report.
Commercial/Industrial Lighting Energy Rebate Programs
KCPL provides rebates when you purchase high efficiency lighting equipment for your
facilities. Not only do you receive monetary incentives from them toward purchases,
but you also lower your energy costs. There are three KCPL rebate programs designed
to fit your needs:
- Custom Energy Rebate for Retrofits- Any KCPL energy customer who plans to replace
lighting equipment in an existing facility with high energy efficiency lighting equipment
can obtain a custom lighting rebate for a lighting retrofit project. You can also
apply for individual lighting energy efficiency measures, or combine energy efficiency
lighting measures and equipment in any way that makes sense for your facility.
- Prescriptive Energy Rebates- KCPL Small-business customers who are on KCPL's Small
General Service rate (SGS) can apply for lighting rebates from a pre-qualified list
of KCPL energy efficiency measures.
- Custom Rebate for New Construction- KCPL & Weeks Electric can work with you to develop
an energy efficiency lighting plan designed for your new building or major renovation.
Individual or combined energy efficiency lighting measures are eligible for KCPL
lighting rebates. In all cases the program is designed to complement your needs and
time schedule.

KC’s electric efficiency gets $24 million boost
By LYNN HORSLEY and STEVE EVERLY
Kansas City will receive $24 million in stimulus funds to try to turn the urban core
into a national model for electrical delivery and efficiency, city officials said
Tuesday.
The federal stimulus money will be combined with $24 million in private investment
from Kansas City Power & Light and its energy partners to create a “smart grid” demonstration
project, which many see as the future of the electric industry.
The five-year research project will explore how to upgrade the central city’s electrical
system and to help residential and commercial customers save energy and money.
President Obama:
There's some areas, like for example clean energy, that has huge potential. Every
building all across the United States probably could use some retrofitting to make
it much more energy efficient. Doing that one thing could put hundreds of thousands
of people back to work.
