Customer Rebate Program

Cash savings today...Energy savings for your home or business tomorrow!

Electric use varies over each 24-hour period and from one season to another, sometimes causing heavy electric power demand and peaks. When that happens, our most economical generating plants work at full capacity. To meet the heavy demand, we may need to start up less efficient generating equipment or even purchase electricity from other producers - and that can be expensive.

This is why Black Hills Power (BHP) is pleased to offer cash rebates to our customers who purchase high efficiency heating equipment, water heaters, and demand controllers.

The rebates are being offered to encourage the customer to purchase energy efficient equipment that results in lower operating costs and a reduced demand on our electric system - and that benefits both BHP and the customer.

Ask your electrical, heating/cooling, or building contractor/dealer about the following rebate programs or simply visit with our BHP representatives at any BHP local office.

Demand Controller

Demand Controllers (DC) level out the peaks and valleys in your electric usage and they also qualify you for special low BHP rates. Customers can receive free installation or a cash rebate when purchasing a demand controller from BHP.

Existing Home: Free Installation up to $300 value.
New Home Installation:
$200 Cash Rebate - Unit must be newly installed in 2008 by a certified electrician and the unit must be programmed and inspected by a BHP technician.

Electric Heat

All forms of permanently installed electric resistance heat installed in conjunction with a Residential Demand Controller or other energy management device qualifies for a rebate.
