🚨 Don't Wait Until 2027

Tier II Deadline

Your EMP + O&M must be operational by July 1, 2026 to file in 2027

Limited Incentives

$150M pool is first-come, first-served. At current pace, funds may run out before 2027

Penalties

$0.30/sf (Tier II) or $5,000 + $1.00/sf annually (Tier I) if late

FAQ Highlights

Q: Why act now if my Tier II deadline is 2027?

A: Because O&M must be implemented by July 1, 2026, and incentives will likely be gone if you wait.

Q: How much will it really cost me?

A: With incentives, your net cost is usually $0 for Tier II and often covered for Tier I.

Q: Do I need an engineer?

A: Tier I requires a Qualified Person (e.g. PE, CEM) on forms. Tier II only needs a Qualified Energy Manager (QEM). Vert handles it either way.
