Who Qualifies?
All small to midsize buildings where MidAmerican Energy delivers electricity and/or natural gas in its Illinois service territory are eligible to be enrolled in the BusinessCheck program, including small retail businesses, restaurants, small office buildings, governmental organizations, churches, health care facilities, multifamily housing, farm operations facilities, and other for-profit and nonprofit organizations' small buildings. This program is designed to evaluate energy use in buildings up to 50,000 sq.ft.

What is a BusinessCheck Energy Assessment?
It is an evaluation of how your small business uses energy and includes specific recommendations on ways you can use energy more efficiently and reduce your monthly energy bill.

In addition to receiving recommendations on ways to save on energy bills, customers have the option to allow installation of energy-saving measures during or following assessments such as:
  • Water pipe insulation
  • Faucet aerators
  • Compact fluorescent lamps
  • LED exit sign retrofits
  • Refrigerated vending machine controller
  • Commercial kitchen pre-rinse sprayer
Following the assessment, participating customers will receive a report that includes energy-saving actions, complete with estimates of potential energy and cost savings, including low- or no-cost suggestions. The report also will include information regarding available MidAmerican Energy rebates to help ease the cost of investing in high-efficiency equipment that deliver long-term energy and energy cost savings. Rebates are offered on installed, qualifying energy efficiency measures in accordance with MidAmerican Energy's Nonresidential Equipment and Custom Systems programs.
