The City of Seattle is recruiting owners of 100 mid-size buildings (100,000 SF or less excluding parking) to enroll in the new Tune-Up Accelerator Program to get a jump-start on meeting the upcoming Seattle Building Tune-Ups requirement.
Seattle City Light and Office of Sustainability and Environment have partnered to offer financial incentives of up to $0.12 per square foot. Additional technical support from Smart Buildings Center and support and UW Integrated Design Lab is also available.
The incentive is estimated to cover at least 50% of the typical cost of a tune-up. In most cases, the simple payback from the electric energy savings alone would be 1.5 years. These incentives won’t be available after the tune-up requirement is fully implemented, so enroll soon to take advantage of the incentives before they disappear.
Find the Program Application, Tune-Up Accelerator Service Provider List and additional program details on the website. Enroll by December 1, 2017. Questions? Email accelerator@seattle.gov or call 206-233-7184.
