This retrofit is intended to greatly reduce electrical power costs at the WTP by up to approximately $350/month. Because of the significant power savings, this project also qualifies for an Idaho Power Energy Efficiency Grant. The City submitted a pre-approval application in December 2018 and Idaho Power accepted the pre-application indicating the project would likely qualify for up to approximately $7,600 in an incentive rebate to offset the cost of completing the retrofit. Attached is the payment application. Completing this application will allow Idaho Power to complete their final inspection of the project (anticipated this Spring) and award the resulting rebate. As prepared, the rebate will be provided directly to the Contractor so as to reduce the overall costs the City must expend.  RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve the Idaho Power Commercial -Industrial Lighting Retrofit Payment Application and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
