Funding for PACE's rebates and incentives comes from Boulder County's Sustainability Tax and the City of Boulder's Climate Tax. Note that rebate amounts and requirements are subject to change without notice. PACE rebates are available on a first come, first serve basis. Businesses are required to contact an advisor prior to the purchase of energy efficiency measures to confirm funding availability, ensure that your project meets the eligibility requirements and to schedule an energy assessment/walk through of the project to verify existing equipment.
PACE rebates are available to commercial and institutional organizations on commercial meters within Boulder County (including non-profits, manufacturing facilities and multifamily housing) installing eligible retrofit measures. Rebates will not be offered to new construction or renovations projects. To distinguish between retrofit and renovation projects, Boulder County will treat the project as new construction/renovation if the business meets two out of the four following criteria:
-The business is undertaking the project primarily due to a change in the use of the space, which requires changes to the lighting or HVAC systems;
-Existing light fixtures are being removed and a totally new light scheme with re-wiring is the result;
-Required to apply for a construction permit;
-First time install of electric operated equipment in which higher efficient models are available.
