EEBC's Policy Action Committee (PAC) facilitates opportunities for our members to collaborate, advocate, and influence the rebates and incentives affecting the industry. EEBC's PAC consists of individual Industry Action Councils. Each Council focuses on their specific area of expertise in the EE industry.

 Active EEBC Industry Action Councils:

  • High-Performance Building Envelope
  • HVAC/Heat Pumps (HP) Residential 
  • HVAC/HP Commercial & Industrial - Currently recruiting Co-Chairs – Let’s talk!
  • HP Water Heaters (HPWH)
  • Commercial Lighting 
  • Policy - Currently recruiting Co-Chairs – Let’s talk

2026 PAC Industry Action Councils are Getting Ready to Take Action on:

  • Educating legislators to pass three bills introduced in the 2026 Legislative Session
  • Influencing the rebate program design in the Power Ahead Rebates (DRCOG)
  • Guiding timely implementation of CEO’s Home Energy Rebates Program (HEAR/HER)
  • Intervening 2027-29 Xcel Energy/PUC Megadocket - starts in July 2026

Our goal is to remove barriers to ensure contractors can take advantage of the DSM and CHP bonus rebates in 2027-29 to meet the EE, BE, and decarbonization shared goals in Colorado. We aim to inform, educate, and advocate for rebate program designs that are fair, reliable, and realistic for rebate processing and payouts, with standards and requirements designed for the pace of contractor business and consumer experiences.

This includes:

  • Review Xcel Energy’s megadocket July filing to request modifications to improve all DSM/BE and CHP HP residential and commercial rebates using field input on what is and isn’t working.
  • Proposing new rebates and pilot programs for new incentives, load flexibility, DR, etc.

New Initiative:

  •  Addressing systemic DSM/CHP problematic operational rebate program practices and timing for: 
    • transparency 
    • application/corrections processing 
    • rebate reimbursement processing
