- Offer the technical assistance of a dedicated energy support team to industrial customers, in order to identify energy-saving opportunities that qualify under the program

The expanded Commercial Lighting Incentive Program will give the provinceÂ’s 30,000 businesses access to more than 30 choices of premium energy efficient lighting. Businesses can start saving on their lighting bills as soon as their electrical contractor purchases products through participating lighting distributors.
"Improving energy efficiency programs for our industrial customers is an environmentally sound and cost-effective way to meet our province's growing electricity needs. The more our customers can cut consumption, the better we can manage the number of power stations and power lines we need to build,” said Robert Watson, President and CEO, SaskPower.
Depending on customer response, the Commercial Lighting Incentive Program could deliver 12 megawatts MW of energy savings by 2017, while the Industrial Energy Optimization Program could deliver 10 megawatts of energy savings. SaskPowerÂ’s long-term goal is to reduce customer demand for electricity by 100 megawatts by 2017.
