City of Lompoc Utilities (CLU) offers incentives to its residential customers for various energy efficiency measures. CLU provides rebates paid monthly as credits on utility bills to customers who replace old clothes washers and dish washers with Energy Star labeled appliances. They will reward customers who purchase LED holiday lights with $4 for strands. Also, CLU customers qualify to receive a rebate up to $10 per light bulb when replacing old incandescent lightbulbs with equivalent wattage LED light bulbs. Limit: 10 light bulbs per electric customer per year.

Additionally, the City of Lompoc Utilities has a refrigerator buy back program, in which the city will pay the customer $35 (or $144 if refrigerator was manufactured before 1992) and provide free pick-up and disposal of the refrigerator. CLU also provides assistance to income qualified customers for refrigerator and clothes washer replacements.  Old appliances must be in working order and all appliances must be inspected by city staff before they are taken out of service.  In addition to these incentives, a custom rebate of $0.15 per watt saved is available. Contact CLU, or check the program website, for eligibility and equipment standards.
