The North Carolina Energy Audit Program provides discounted energy audits to help your farm prioritize energy efficiency projects and access funding for equipment upgrades.

The program provides an unbiased third-party evaluation of energy efficiency and demand reduction opportunities on your farm and ranks each project by a simple payback period. Each energy audit also includes a detailed inventory of your current equipment and an analysis of your energy usage by farm activity.

This program will cover 75% of the cost of your energy audit. Your energy audit can be used to access funding through USDA programs such as the Rural Energy for America Program (REAP), which provides grants up to 25% of your project cost and loan guarantees up to 75% of your project cost. There is no obligation to move forward with projects once you receive your audit report.

This program is funded by USDA Rural Development and operated by the North Carolina Electric Membership Corporation and EnSave, Inc. The program is offered on a first-come, first-served basis and funding is limited.
