New Jersey Clean Energy Program

Why Rebates?

New Jersey offers multiple lighting rebate programs through the New Jersey Clean Energy Program (NJCEP), local utilities, and specialized contractors. These programs provide significant discounts, zero-interest financing, or free service installations for upgrading to energy-efficient LEDs in both residential and commercial properties.

For Businesses & Commercial Properties

Instant Discounts

Utility rebate programs provide point-of-sale discounts on qualified lighting and HVAC equipment when you purchase from participating distributors. Perfect for small maintenance upgrades.

Commercial Upgrades

Rebate programs help businesses claim up to 80% back on LED lighting upgrades.

Free Retrofits

Service providers fully cover retail lighting upgrades using government rebate programs.

Horticultural Facilities

Indoor growers can access instant rebates ($50–$250 per fixture) or custom rebates up to $4 million for larger scale operations.
