Motor Controls/Variable Frequency Drives

Ameren Missouri is here to help you mitigate your motor system(s) energy losses, which could be as much as 55% of your energy inputs. By installing motor controls/variable frequency drives (VFDs), you can adjust your motor speed to serve your needs in the most efficient manner. If you do not need your motor to run continuously, or at maximum output, install a VFD so that you're no longer paying for energy you are not using. Ameren Missouri offers cash incentives to help offset the cost of installing VFDs on your motor-powered devices such as pumps, fans, compressors and exhaust hoods.

Options to Save Energy and Earn Cash Incentives

Incentives are paid on a per unit-installed basis and are available for a variety of qualified improvements. All Standard Fast-Track measures do not require pre-approval unless the incentive is anticipated to be more than $15,000. Linear fluorescent lighting projects may be eligible for enhanced incentive rates through the Standard Pre-Approval process.
