The New Construction Program offering provides technical assistance and financial incentives to building owners, developers, and design team to encourage building design that exceed industry-standard practices and Illinois Energy Conservation Code requirements. Eligible project include both new construction and major renovations. Support includes whole-building energy modeling and project guidance during the pre-design or early design phases, enabling participants make informed decisions that deliver significant long-term energy and cost savings.

Instant Discounts offers commercial, industrial, and public sector customers point-of-sale discounts on qualified lighting, HVAC equipment, fork truck, and industrial battery charger products that are sold through participating distributors.

The Custom Offering identifies and implements site-specific and unique cost-effective energy efficiency opportunities that are not available via other portfolio offerings. The Custom offering provides incentives that range from 7 to 18 cents per kWh saved depending on the project. Certain upgrades to water and wastewater treatment facilities can earn up to 21 cents per kWh saved. Measures include process efficiency improvements that save energy. 

Strategic Energy Management (SEM) is a holistic, long-term program focused on operations and maintenance as well as behavioral and cultural aspects of how an organization uses energy. SEM helps organizations embed energy efficiency into their operations and company culture. SEM provides tools, coaching, and technical resources to support customers’ energy goals through a year-long series of workshops and one-on-one coaching. It draws on principles of continuous improvement and organizational change and integrates Lean, Six Sigma, and other cost savings and operational excellence initiatives. SEM provides incentives for behavioral energy savings as well as operational measures.

Business Energy Analyzer (BEA) provides business and public customers with access to 30-minute interval electric usage data, load disaggregation profiles, data visualization tools, and energy efficiency recommendations. The Business Energy Analyzer program consists of a free, opt-in tool that enables commercial and industrial customers to leverage their energy usage information to gain greater insight and control over their electricity use. The tool serves an important customer education function by providing customers with access to interval data and analytic tools to track their energy usage, optimize energy consumption, and identify immediate low-cost and no-cost energy saving opportunities.

Public Schools Carbon-Free Assessment (PSCFA) is a no-cost option to all public schools in the ComEd service territory providing a roadmap to plan their decarbonization journey. PSCFA offers guidance on becoming carbon-free in energy usage as well as the ability to apply for grants. PSCFA program was created as a result of the Illinois Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA) passed in September 2021. As part of this legislation, public schools can receive a carbon-free assessment from ComEd at no cost. This free, non-interruptive assessment includes an inspection of the building envelope and mechanical insulation. PSCFA also determines the infrastructure and estimated costs needed for electrification, the building’s solar energy potential, and opportunities to save energy and reduce costs.

Energy Usage Data System (EUDS) is a customer facing online tool that is accessed outside of ComEd.com and aggregates whole building electricity use for buildings with multiple (4+) accounts. Enables customers to aggregate energy usage for all accounts in a building so benchmarking can be performed to determine whole building energy performance.

ComEd's Retro-Commissioning (RCx) Program is designed to help commercial, industrial, and public sector customers in northern Illinois optimize their building systems for improved energy efficiency and reduced operational costs. 

Participants can expect average energy savings of 5–15% of annual usage. The program offers fully funded engineering studies to identify low-cost operational improvements with simple paybacks of less than 18 months, in addition to other performance-based incentives and additional incentives for select communities.

The Standard Program provides monetary incentives to customers on a “Standard” fixed or per-unit basis. Standard offers incentives for common energy-efficiency improvements. Standard offers incentives for common energy-efficiency improvements which can include:

• Indoor and outdoor lighting equipment, including networked lighting and LED streetlights
• HVAC equipment (e.g., variable speed drives, chillers, roof-top units)
• Commercial appliances
• Industrial and laboratory equipment
• Compressed air equipment
• Energy Management Systems (EMS)

The Energy Efficiency Service Provider (EESP) Network helps streamline and enhance the EESP experience to increase participation and drive projects, as well as provide ways for EESPs to convey feedback to continuously improve the program. Contractors, distributors, engineering and/or design firms that service residential, commercial, industrial or public-sector customers can become an EESP via ComEd.com at Energy Efficiency Service Providers.

ComEd offers heat pump incentives to ComEd residential customers that replace existing equipment with qualifying, high-efficiency air source heat pumps, mini-split heat pumps, and geothermal (ground source) heat pumps. Incentives are offered via two channels: Midstream and Downstream. Measures including air source heat pumps and ductless mini-split heat pumps, are offered through a distributor (midstream channel) and installed by a heat pump trained contractor (HPTC). Midstream incentives are provided in the form of an instant discount at the time of installation or service. Geothermal heat pumps are offered by EESPs to residential customers and are downstream measures (incentives paid to customers through the participating EESP). Downstream Geothermal Heat Pump incentives are offered through a Geothermal and ICC certified Service Provider.
