Incentive Capping

Specifications

• Existing throttling devices such as inlet vanes, bypass dampers, and throttling valves must be permanently removed or disabled.

• VSD must be installed with automatic control technology.

Not Eligible for Incentives

• VSDs installed on equipment that operates less than 1,200 hours per year

• Replacements of existing VSDs • VSDs installed on redundant/backup motors• VSDs installed in place of multi-speed flow control equipment (such as

two-speed cooling tower fans)• VSDs installed in place of variable pitch blade flow control equipment• VSDs installed for the purpose of “soft-starting” motors• VSDs installed on pumps where affinity laws are not in effect, such as

positive displacement pumps
