Dual fuel rooftop units rebates for non-profit organizations

Dual fuel rooftop units (RTUs) provide an option for new construction and existing buildings, for non-profit organizations, to reduce energy consumption and overall greenhouse gas emissions while maintaining access to the reliability of the gas system. Customers can also help reduce overall emissions by designating all or part of their gas as Renewable Natural Gas.¹

What are dual fuel RTUs?

These are packaged units that contain a combination of an electric heat pump and gas-fired burner, which provide heating (electric or gas) and cooling (electric only).
