We know that
there are just about as many ways to save energy
as there are industries in Oregon. That's why
we offer custom incentives for equipment and
projects that save energy using equipment not
eligible for our standard incentives.
Custom Analyses
For production and process
improvements, we offer custom analyses to identify
incentives for your facility’s particular
needs.
