  5. Illinois Energy Now Public Sector Energy Efficiency What is Illinois Energy Now? In 2007, legislation amended the Illinois Public Utilities Act and required that the State’s largest utility providers and the Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity (DCEO) develop a portfolio of electric energy efficiency programs to meet legislative goals that reduce energy demand. In 2009, legislation was passed to include natural gas energy efficiency programs to meet legislative reduction goals. Illinois Energy Now is the portfolio of programs the Department of Commerce & Economic Opportunity offers to administer the electric and natural gas incentives for the public sector. 2012-2013Public Sector Energy Efficiency Programs combinenatural gas incentives with the former Public Sector Electric Efficiency Programs.

  20. Program Year 5 (PY5) Updates 2012-2013Public Sector Energy Efficiency Programs

  21. Program Eligibility Determined by Electric and/or Natural Gas Service Area • Where the public sector facility is located in Ameren Illinois or ComEd electric service areas, facility is eligible for electric efficiency incentives for those measures that produce electric savings. Measures include; lighting, electric HVAC equipment, motors, electric kitchen equipment.Where the public sector facility is located in Ameren Illinois, Nicor Gas, Peoples Gas or North Shore Gas natural gas service areas, facility is eligible for natural gas efficiency incentives for those measures that produce natural gas savings. Measures include; natural gas HVAC equipment, natural gas water heaters, natural gas kitchen equipment.Where the public sector facility is located in both a participating electric service area and natural gas service area, facility is eligible for both electric and natural gas efficiency incentives.
