For Government, Schools, and Non-Profits

We offer a variety of energy efficiency programs for governmental facilities, schools, and non-profit organizations that receive service from Oncor. These programs are specifically designed to help:

  • Schoolreduce monthly energy consumption and costs, and
  • reduce energy demand during the state's summer on-peak period

Through these programs, Oncor provides incentives directly to facilities that implement energy saving projects. Incentives are also available through Energy Efficiency Service Providers who implement the energy saving projects for the governments and schools.
