As we enter the new year, it’s a perfect time to think about energy management for your home or business. Energy efficiency is about more than just keeping costs down; it’s about making sustainable choices that benefit you and the planet. At GC Electric Co., we know energy management inside out, and we’re here to help you take full advantage of savings through rebates, tax credits, and smart energy solutions.

Ready to make a New Year’s resolution that saves you money and energy? Here’s how energy management can work for you in 2025.

 

Take Advantage of Rebates and Tax Credits

One of the easiest ways to start managing your energy use and expenses is by taking advantage of rebates and tax credits. Installing energy-efficient systems, like solar or wind, not only lowers your carbon footprint but also pays you back over time.

When you install a solar or wind energy system on your property, you’re looking at a payback period of about 10 years, after which you can enjoy decades of energy savings. And right now, solar equipment costs are at record lows. So, if you’ve been on the fence about renewable energy, this is the perfect moment to jump in! The sun and wind are free sources of power that can work for you every day, and with government-sponsored rebates and tax incentives, you’ll offset initial costs significantly.

Pro tip: Ask us about incentives and tax credits to get the maximum benefit. We’ll walk you through the available options and help you understand how much you can save with renewable energy.

 

Pennsylvania’s Act 129 Energy Rebate: Upgrade Lighting, Cut Costs

Did you know that the state of Pennsylvania will pay you to upgrade your lighting? Under Pennsylvania’s Act 129, businesses can get energy rebates for improving their lighting. GC Electric Co. is a PPL-approved direct discount contractor for this program.

Here’s what that means for you: GC Electric Co. can help you replace outdated, inefficient lighting with highly efficient T8, T5, and LED systems. Whether it’s an office, warehouse, or parking lot, these new lighting systems can make a huge difference in your energy consumption and costs. Plus, the rebates for lighting upgrades are pretty impressive:

  • Ballast and lamps – Rebate up to $50
  • Time clocks and timers – Rebate up to $100
  • Occupancy sensors – Rebate up to $45

With these rebates, you’ll not only save on your utility bill each month but also lower your initial investment in upgraded lighting. And, with LEDs and other efficient lighting options, you can enjoy brighter, longer-lasting light while using significantly less energy.
