Saving money is part of our electric cooperative

Members must be in GOOD Standing with NEC in order to qualify and receive benefits through our marketing program.

Residential Heating System Incentives-(single family):

Northern Electric offers members a five percent interest loan to cover the cost of installing new electric heating equipment, ductwork, wiring and labor. MAXIMUM LOAN AMOUNT IS $10,000.

AND/OR: a $600 cash rebate for the installation of an "ENERGY STAR" rated ground source or air source heat pump. (Minimum 10KW electric resistance back-up required for a rebate.)

PLEASE NOTE: NEC will not provide marketing rebates or free boilers for any other electric heating system such as in-floor, electric storage or resistance heating. These systems (along with heat pumps) do, however, still qualify for Northern's special reduced electric heating rate.

Installation must meet minimum size requirements, call Northern Electric for details.
