FPL | Lighting Rebate - Interior Business Building
 

Brighten up Your Business with Savings

Interior lighting accounts for more than 25 percent of a business's energy consumption. With our Business Lighting program, you can reduce your energy use while improving lighting quality. We offer incentives for businesses to replace inefficient lighting systems with more energy efficient ones. Fill your space with quality light and save!

  • An FPL Customer Manager will help you through the entire process
  • Pick an energy-efficient lighting system
  • Select a Participating Independent Contractor (PIC)* to install the new lighting and you will get a discount on the cost of the job
  • We will give you a rebate of 65 cents to $4 for each linear fluorescent lamp

  • Small, medium and large businesses are eligible to participate.
  • Installations must be approved in advance in order to qualify for incentives. We may pre- and/or post-inspect.

New Lighting Standards Starting in 2012

Starting in 2012, the manufacturing of standard incandescent light bulbs will change.

  • 100-watt bulbs will no longer be manufactured starting January 1, 2012
  • 75-watt bulbs will no longer be manufactured starting January 1, 2013
  • 60- and 40-watt bulbs will no longer be manufactured starting January 1, 2014

A new fluorescent lamp standard will eliminate most T12 lamps and the lowest performing T8s. For common four-foot linear fluorescent lamps, the standard calls for an efficacy of at least 89 lumens per watt (lpw). High-performance T8s (sometimes called super T8s). Visit the Department of Energy for more information on lighting standards.
