Savings for Educational and Congregational Facilities

Schools, universities, daycare centers, churches, synagogues and other places of worship are great candidates for energy efficiency incentives from the Ameren Missouri's BizSavers® program. Whether your organization is not-for-profit or for-profit, public or private, you can save money by operating more efficiently while also benefiting from a cash incentive to offset the initial cost of your investment.

Popular Efficiency Measures

Lighting

LED Replacements for fluorescent and High Intensity Discharge lamps in gyms, hallways, offices, theatres, classrooms, meeting rooms and chapels can pay for themselves with energy savings within a year and reduce maintenance costs. You can also take your savings to the next level with lighting controls.

HVAC

By replacing inefficient HVAC systems, schools and places of worship can save big! Consider installing heat pumps with high Energy Efficiency Ratios (EERs) or adding controls to your equipment to dramatically reduce wasted energy by modulating temperature, fan speed and light output.

Motor Controls/VFDs

Motor controls/variable frequency drives (VFDs) are a great energy-saving measure for schools and places of worship. Installing VFDs on fixed-speed fans and pumps can save 10-50% in energy costs.
