The Clean Green Yard Machines Commercial Voucher Program (Commercial CGYM) provides incentives for the replacement of landscape maintenance equipment to lawn care providers, such as public agencies and private entities in the San Joaquin Valley.

PG&E offers 0% interest loans for replacing old and worn-out equipment with more energy-efficient models. We'll set you up with a loan repayment amount that is in line with the monthly energy savings from your upgrade. Your energy bill shouldn't increase due to your equipment investment. Once your loan is paid off, you will see savings on your bill.

Loans range between $5,000 and $4,000,000 per premise, with loan periods of up to 120 months.

In some circumstances, GoGreen Business Financing for small businesses might be a better option:

• An expedited installation.
• A loan of less than $5,000.
• Project requires longer payback (i.e., windows, rooftop HVAC).

Replacing your old and inefficient air conditioner units can save more money than you think

Incentives are available for the installation of new high-efficiency air conditioner (AC) units replacing your existing and operating air conditioner units. As your AC unit approaches or reaches its useful life expectancy of 15 years, replacing it with a new high efficient AC unit can save 40-60% on electricity compared to the existing unit.

 
If you are ready to replace your old unit with a new high efficiency air conditioner unit, please download the following information and contact us about your project. (All Projects are subject to funding availability)

Six electric school bus projects will each receive $200,000 from MBCP's contribution and the rest of the funding will be supported by MBARD grant funds.

The San Diego County Air Pollution Control District launched the Clean Air for All Grant Campaign to help businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies swap their polluting heavy machinery and equipment for electric and low carbon emission alternatives.

The District is currently providing funding opportunities under several components of its Public Benefit Grants Program to local public agencies. The program was developed and designed to meet the needs and challenges faced by Valley public institutions by providing funds towards a wide variety of clean-air, public-benefit projects which will provide a direct benefit to Valley residents.

The SoCalGas On-Bill Financing (OBF) program offers qualified business customers as well as multi-family residential owners 0% financing from $5,000 to $100,000 per meter for qualifying natural gas equipment.

The program is open to all non-residential customers, including owners of multi-family units who do not live on premises. Participants must have had an active account for the past two years and good credit standing as determined by the Utility. The funds may be used for a wide variety of efficiency improvement projects, and the monthly loan payments will be added directly to the customer's bill. Monthly energy savings help to offset the monthly loan charges.  Review the program web site for additional information.
