Program Disclaimer
This rebate program is funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), administered through the North Dakota Department of Commerce. The North Dakota Association of Rural Electric Cooperatives (NDAREC) and its participating local distribution cooperative members have a limited amount of ARRA funds to distribute to electric cooperative customers who meet the eligibility requirements for the program. In distributing rebate funds, NDAREC agrees to comply with all applicable federal non-discrimination laws, so that no person shall be denied the benefits of this program or be otherwise subject to discrimination on the grounds of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or age.
There is a fund available for a variety of energy efficiency and demand response rebates. There is a separate fund to promote renewable energy from wind, solar and geothermal applications. Rebates will be awarded on a first come first serve basis from each fund, so consumers should not depend on the availability of rebate funds in planning energy efficiency or renewable energy projects. When a fund is depleted, NDAREC and the local co-ops have no further responsibility to provide rebates under this program.
This program will terminate when the funds for the program are spent, or on December 31, 2011, whichever occurs first.
