Blue Earth, Inc., an energy efficiency and renewable energy services company, announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Castrovilla Inc. is in the process of implementing an additional $1.1 Million in utility funded refrigeration rebate incentives under its highly successful “Keep Your Cool” Program.
The proprietary “Keep Your Cool” Program was designed to give electric utilities an efficiency program targeting their business customers who operate commercial refrigeration equipment. The utility supported Program offers energy efficient retrofits like high efficiency motors, LED lighting and Refrigeration Control Systems,which help improve a business’ bottom line by increasing equipment life and lowering energy bills at a low or zero cost to the business.

Over 1,000 businesses have received energy efficient retrofits under the Program, receiving approximately $1,900,000 in utility funded rebates. In addition, approximately 12,000,000 kWh in first year savings has been achieved by the Program.
