ComEd and Nicor Gas New Construction Service
Financial incentives and technical assistance available for energy efficiency.

If your business or design firm is in the early design stages of a new construction or major renovation project in Chicago or northern Illinois, you should know about the ComEd and Nicor Gas New Construction Service.

The New Construction Service combines financial incentives and technical assistance such as energy modeling to encourage owners, developers and design teams to incorporate energy-saving strategies in their building’s design. Applications must be submitted early in design to qualify for the program (design development or earlier).
