“Every time I expected to encounter bureaucracy, I actually encountered a person.”

—John Riley, Grasshopper’s Comics, Williston Park John Riley loves comic books. For the last 30 years, he’s been sharing that love with readers young and old. And we’ve been with John every step of the way, helping plan improvements ranging from upgrading LED lighting to replacing a 50-year-old oil tank with a super-efficient heat pump. These upgrades save him money that he reinvests in—you guessed it—more comic books. As it should be.

Supporting Small Businesses through Savings: A Q&A with PSEG Long Island's Michael Voltz Q: Why does PSEG Long Island care about small businesses, and what is it doing to help lower their energy costs?

A: Simply put, small businesses are the backbone of Long Island’s economy. From Malverne to Montauk, if they thrive, we all thrive. The biggest thing we can do for small businesses is offer them a custom-tailored road map to savings with our free energy assessment. If you’re a small business owner, let our trained professionals tour your facility, analyze your equipment and examine your energy needs. The consultant will give you ideas on how PSEG Long Island rebates can help you reduce the upfront costs o f upgrading.

MICHAEL VOLTZ, P.E., Director of Energy, Efficenecy and Renewable Energy at PSEG Long Island.

T

he bottom line is that Long Island wouldn’t have an economy without small businesses. And hardworking small business owners are always looking for ways to improve their bottom line. To find out more about how PSEG Long Island helps small businesses thrive, we sat down with Michael Voltz, PSEG Long Island’s director of Energy Efficiency and Renewables.

Voltz is an alumnus of Farmingdale State College and a Long Island resident. He is responsible for planning, implementing, and evaluating energy efficiency and renewable programs, which save PSEG Long Island’s business and residential customers millions of dollars every year and help fulfill Long Island’s portion of New York State’s ambitious greenhouse gas emissions goals.

Voltz was born and raised in North Massapequa and has been working in the utility industry for 40 years, handling everything from power generation to customer services, energy investments and energy efficiency. For the majority of that time, he has been focused on helping customers save money by using efficient lighting, appliances and renewable forms of energy.

Simply put, small businesses are the backbone of Long Island’s economy.

From Malverne to Montauk, if they thrive, we all thrive.

Michael Voltz

Q: What are some of the programs and rebates

that PSEG Long Island offers?

A: Using electricity more efficiently can have a strong positive impact on small businesses. PSEG Long Island offers rebates on many of the things that are the biggest consumers of electricity for small businesses: Heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, lighting and more. The monthly energy savings continues for years, giving a long-term boost to a business’ bottom line.

Since 2015, PSEG Long Island’s business customers have completed a total of 27,000 projects, earning $225 million in rebates and incentives. The installed energy conservation measures are expected to save 868 million kilowatt hours in annual energy savings this year alone. And there are still plenty of opportunities to grow those numbers. We encourage small business owners to reach out to us today.

Q: Does PSEG Long Island do anything for small businesses that are just starting out? Looks like there are many new businesses popping up across Long Island and the Rockaways.

A: Today’s new business could be tomorrow’s community fixture. At PSEG Long Island, we celebrate these new businesses and work to help them establish themselves by offering two Economic Development grant programs. The Main Street Revitalization Program offers financial incentive awards for projects in a local business district that are likely to improve the economic stability and growth of the community.

Eligible projects may include interior renovations, storefront or façade improvements, streetscape improvements, and engaging design elements that contribute to a robust “Main Street” that, in turn, encourages commerce. Up to $25,000 is available through standard grants, and up to $100,000 is available when the grant supplements equal funding from a non-PSEG Long Island source. The Vacant Space Revival Program offers bill discounts to eligible businesses that occupy commercial space that has been vacant for a period of one year or more when it is located inside a recognized business district.

Q: Business owners/managers don’t always have the time to sit down and manually figure out ways to manage their energy costs. What can they do during their downtime to see where they can save?

A: PSEG Long Island understands how busy small business owners can be. Those who are short on time can get useful energy cost insights through MyBusinessEnergy, an online tool available to PSEG Long Island commercial customers. If you’re a small business owner, you can maximize energy efficiency recommendations by supplying basic information about your business. MyBusinessEnergy will generate a free, downloadable report that provides a summary of your site information as well as current energy efficiency recommendations. PSEG Long Island also has a team of Business Customer Advocates (BCAs) who walk the main streets in commercial districts, visiting about 100 businesses per week across Long Island and the Rockaways. From delis and coffee shops to salons and jewelers, the BCAs are going door-to-door to meet business owners and educate them about energy efficiency programs, grants and other services that can help them conserve energy, save money and time, pay their bills and continue to thrive.

To learn more, visit www.psegliny.com/business or contact PSEG Long Island’s specially trained Business Solutions Center representatives at 1-800-966-4818. We are here to help your business succeed.
