Your Incentives to Save

DTE Energy’s Your Energy Savings Program offers cash incentives to 

help business customers reduce their energy use. These incentives 

reduce the up-front cost of installing more effi cient equipment and make 

it easier for you to invest in energy effi ciency. Since a portion of energy 

costs are a controllable operating expense, every dollar saved can make 

an impact on your bottom line.

Making it Easier to Save

The program offers incentives for an array of energy-saving technologies – electric and gas. Customers can pick from a prescriptive menu of 

projects with pre-set incentives or propose a custom project with verifi able 

energy savings. 

To participate in the program simply follow these steps:

 • Check your eligibility with program requirements

 • Submit a pre-approval application to reserve your funding

 • Install the eligible measures according to the application specifi cations

 • Complete, sign and submit fi nal application with all documentation within 60 days of project completion

Boiler Tune-ups

A properly tuned boiler can save you 

up to 5 percent of your operating 

costs annually.

A typical boiler will consume many times the initial capital 

expense in fuel usage annually. Consequently, a difference of 

just a few percentage points in boiler effi ciency between units 

can translate into substantial savings. This fact sheet provides 

an overview of boiler tunes-ups and what you can do to lower 

your operating expenses.

Boiler Tune-ups

The initial cost of a boiler is the 

lowest portion of your boiler

maintenance costs represent 

the largest portion of your 

boiler equipment investment.
