All hg8868皇冠下载 customers who own or operate an irrigation system used for irrigation of agricultural crops or pastures receiving electricity from hg8868皇冠下载.
Yes, submit an application for each pump service location. 然而, if you received an incentive for specific components at a given service location, those same components are not eligible for an incentive again for three years.
Complete and sign a Menu Incentive application, attach the required receipts or invoices itemizing the sprinkler parts, and mail to hg8868皇冠下载 within one year from the date of purchase or email to irrigation@stevejmole.com.
If the project is installed differently than proposed, energy savings and the incentive will be recalculated.
It is funded through the 能源 Efficiency 服务s charges collected monthly on hg8868皇冠下载 customers’ bills, as approved by the Idaho Public Utilities Commission.
能源 efficiency benefits all of our customers because it helps delay the need to acquire more costly resources to meet the load of the electric system. 能源 efficiency is good for your business because it can reduce your costs.
你可以联系你所在的地区 hg8868皇冠下载 agriculture representative and/or seek recommendations and bids from local irrigation system dealers.
hg8868皇冠下载 calculates the anticipated energy savings for your project. Calculations are based on previous energy use and the proposed pump modifications or new system specifications. Qualifying projects receive a notice along with an 灌溉效率奖励 Program Agreement, which must be signed by you and returned to hg8868皇冠下载. hg8868皇冠下载 reserves the right to deny Custom Incentive participation for irrigation systems that do not comply with industry standards.
hg8868皇冠下载 calculates the energy-savings estimate based on past energy use data for the service location and compares it to the calculated energy use of the system with the proposed changes. The calculated number is based on the submitted information. This energy savings estimate is multiplied by $0.25 per kWh or $450 per kW and compared to 75% of the total project cost to determine which is less. The incentive can change if the final invoices vary from the original estimate.
The Menu Incentive option encourages energy-efficient improvements to an existing irrigation system by covering a portion of the costs to replace specified components. Incentives are available for qualifying replacement parts and components, up to two per acre of like components in a three year period, selected from a predetermined list. The incentive amount varies by component and in no event will exceed the actual purchase price. The incentive price per unit listed in the Menu Incentive Application, limited to 100% of the purchase price, will be multiplied by the number of qualifying components purchased to calculate the amount of the incentive payment. Incentive payments will be applied first to any outstanding balance owed to hg8868皇冠下载 and its affiliates.
hg8868皇冠下载 is committed to the success of this program. To ensure the program benefits you and hg8868皇冠下载, you will be asked to sign the agreement that sets forth the specific terms and conditions of this program.
All proposals to reduce the energy use of an irrigation system will be considered.
Example modifications may include:
- Low-pressure pivot or linear packages (15 psi if possible)
- Reduced-pressure nozzles with 40-foot riser spacing
- Pumps that operate zones of the system at different pressures
- Larger mainlines to reduce friction loss
- Pipe to utilize gravity pressure
- Replacing a pump with one more appropriate for the system
- Lowering the flow rate of a pump through increased application efficiency (savings caused by reduced acres will not qualify)
- Installing multiple pumps that can run independently when part of the system is turned off
- Installing a variable speed drive (must be 符合IEEE 519标准)
- 安装流量控制喷嘴
- Installing high-efficiency motors
