Octus, which won the contract through a bidding process, is one of four approved energy efficiency vendors selected for the project.
Small Business Lighting Program has been designed to offer rebates that will cover up to 100% of the costs for select energy efficiency lighting measures, and will be available to City of Roseville businesses with peak demand less than 250KW per month.
The program, which started on July 6, 2010 and will remain open until funding is fully subscribed.
Mananya Chansanchai, vice president of energy systems at Octus, said: “On the heels of our acquisition and integration of Quantum Energy, this program provides a prime opportunity to help business owners in Roseville immediately and perpetually reduce their energy use and costs.
“Stimulus funds for energy efficiency are starting to flow into the economy, which is a good sign for Octus and an even better sign for commercial building owners, managers and tenants.”
Mark Riffey, manager of Roseville Electric Small Business Program, said: “Businesses that upgrade their lighting can significantly reduce their monthly energy consumption, which will help lower monthly operating expenses. We hope that all eligible businesses take advantage of this program that is designed to cover nearly all of the lighting retrofit costs.”
