Clean Energy Rebate Program<br />
www.njcep.com/html/2_incent.html<br />
New Jersey’s 1999 electricity restructuring legislation provides for investments in energy<br />
efficiency and renewable energy through the "Societal Benefits Charge" collected from<br />
all electric public utility customers. In March 2001, the New Jersey Board of Public<br />
Utilities approved funding for renewable energy programs, including a customer-sited<br />
renewables rebate program for homes, businesses, institutions and non-profit facilities.<br />
Eligible technologies include fuel cells, photovoltaic, small wind and or sustainable<br />
biomass technologies. Systems must include at least a five-year, all-inclusive warranty.<br />
Eligible systems should be sized to produce no more than 125% of the historical or<br />
expected (if new construction) amount of electricity consumed at a system's site.<br />
Financial incentives for systems larger than 1 MW are available through the state's<br />
Renewable Energy Project Grants and Financing Program.<br />

Combined Heat & Power 2006 Program<br />
www.njcleanenergy.com/html/Combined/combined.html<br />
This program offers qualifying customers, contractors, and energy service companies<br />
incentives to purchase and install various types of CHP units. To qualify, the customer's<br />
facility must be located in New Jersey, and the customer must purchase electricity from<br />
the utility grid. Incentives are paid out only up to 1MW of capacity. Any portion of a<br />
customer's load that is committed to an interruptible or peak load reduction program is<br />
not eligible for incentives. However, these customers can seek incentives for generation<br />
capacity to cover their uncommitted load.<br />
<strong>Fuel</strong> cells not fueled by Class I renewable fuel qualifies for a $4.00/W incentive not to<br />
exceed $1 million per applicant.<br />
