PACE reserves the right to waive or adjust limits on a case-by-case basis. Rebate amounts and availability can vary, rebates are available on a first come, first serve basis while funding is available, and pre-approval might be needed. Businesses are required to contact an advisor prior to the purchase of qualifying measures to confirm funding availability, ensure that your project meets the eligibility requirements and to schedule an energy assessment/walk through of the project to verify existing equipment.
Funding for PACE’s rebates and incentives comes from Boulder County’s Sustainability Tax, the City of Boulder’s Climate Tax, and the City of Louisville.
