Residential Energy Efficient Lighting Program

OMU is offering a T8 and T5 lighting retrofit incentive for OMU residential electric customers. Update your T12 lighting to T8 or T5 florescent lighting in your home, shop or garage. A retrofit replaces existing inefficient lighting including ballast and bulbs or the entire fixture. Energy savings could be up to 35% for T8 retrofits and up to 75% for T5 retrofits depending on hours used. Note: T5s are more expensive so do your homework.

As of January 1, 2015, OMU has added LED fixture (hard-wire) and screw-in lamp incentives to the Residential Lighting Application. LED lighting offers significant advantages over CFLs: longer life, dimmable and instant on.

There is a plenty of information online or check with your lighting specialist.
