IRRIGATION & AGRICULTURAL INCENTIVES You work long, hard hours to keep your agricultural business productive, bountiful and profitable. But how much time does it leave for you to consider how to operate at a lower cost? Upgrading to more energy-efficient tools and devices is proven to help you do just that - without sacrificing productivity. And thanks to available Inland Power rebates, you can put some of that cash back into your wallet! Use this guide to learn more about potential energy-saving upgrades you can make to your business. Please note that the lighting calculator must be completed for pre-approval of projects to be considered for a rebate. Rebate amounts are $8.00 per tube and up to 70% of total project cost. For more information on lighting rebates, please visit COMMERCIAL LIGHTING | Inland Power . conservation@inlandpower.com (509) 789-1801 (509) 747-7151 AVAILABLE REBATE OPPORTUNITIES IRRIGATION PUMP TESTING AND SYSTEM ANALYSIS Regular maintenance and repairs keep your irrigation system running; however, it may not identify the inefficiencies that drive higher operating costs as your equipment ages. Pump testing can determine if you would benefit from a rebuild, or if replacement is a better option. Analysis can also identify opportunities to increase the efficiency of the irrigation delivery system. As technology has advanced, many technologies and upgrades have shown to improve irrigation while reducing wasted water and energy. Inland Power pays for these inspections by industry professionals and the upgrades made to your system based on the information revealed in your analysis may be eligible for rebates. NEW HIGH-EFFICIENCY IRRIGATION PUMPS (up to $70 per horsepower) Over time, some irrigation pumps may become worn out or less efficient than ideal. Or, your old irrigation pump might not be a good match to your current system requirements. Installing a new, more efficient pump will help restore your irrigation system to the best operating point and save money. VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVES (VFD) (up to $100 per horsepower) VFDs are designed to adjust water-pump motor speed to match your changing irrigation needs, controlling the frequency of the electrical power that's supplied to your motor. Even minor speed adjustments using a VFD can create big energy savings, often as much as 10 to 20 percent. You will also get greater precision and tighter control over water distribution and pressure, and help the pump match-flow requirements. A calculator is available to make estimating savings and applying for rebates easier than ever. If installed with a new high-efficiency irrigation pump, the energy savings could be even greater. PUMP HOUSE THERMOSTATIC CONTROLS ($14 per outlet) During cold winters, pump house temperatures can get below zero and threaten to freeze or burst pipes. Heaters are often used to prevent freezing conditions during those cold winter months. Thermostatic controls manage the operation of the heaters to prevent the freezing of pipes and tanks, and shut off automatically when the threat of freezing has passed. installation of thermostatic controls can be as simple as plugging the device in between the space heater and the outlet. ENERGY FREE LIVESTOCK WATERERS ($165) Do you take care of livestock during the winter months? An immersion tank heater uses a lot of electricity. Replace the tank with a non-electric tank, or add a thermostatically controlled outlet to limit tank-heater operation on freezing days but still provide fresh water to your animals. LOW ELEVATION SPRAY APPLICATION (LESA) (up to $18 per drop) LESA can provide more uniform irrigation application for all of your crops through the conversion of your center pivot irrigation system to lower sprinkler heads, bringing them closer to crops. This greatly reduces water evaporation during irrigation, and reduces the overall pressure and energy required. Must be sit 3 feet or less above ground. LOW ENERGY PRECISION APPLICATION (LEPA) (up to $18 per drop) LEPA has been a successful irrigation strategy for more than 25 years, popular in water-short areas such as the high plains. The typical set-up is tubing located in every other furrow, with a bubbler located on the end of the tubing. In many cases, the bubbler is covered with a sock to help distribute the water. With low-pressure regulators (e.g., 10 Psi) and no wind drift, LEPA is energy and water efficient. Care should be taken to plant in circles and address any potential runoff issues. MOBILE DRIP IRRIGATION (MDI) (up to $18 per drop) MDI is a newer strategy for saving water. It is similar to LEPA, except the irrigation equipment and tubing are located on the ground. The MDI tubing has multiple emitters, depending on the location along the pivot. For instance, the last span may have MDI tubing that is more than 50 feet long. With low-pressure regulators (e.g., 5 to 10 Psi) and no wind drift, MDI is energy and water efficient. MID ELEVATION SPRAY APPLICATION (MESA) (up to $15 per drop) MESA irrigation features rotating or spray-type sprinklers located on drop tubes, generally located 5 to 10 feet above ground level. There are many types of irrigation sprinklers, some with larger droplets that can reduce wind drift and evaporation to prevent wasted water. MESA also creates uniformity in water delivery for predictable results. Uniformity is important because lower pressure at the furthest sprinklers could mean crops at the end of the pivot are under-watered, while crops closest to the pivot are drenched. Low-pressure regulators ranging from 15 to 25 Psi are typically used to ensure individual sprinklers have nearly constant pressure at the nozzle, regardless of terrain. Saving water in irrigation means less energy is required to pump the water, which helps reduce costs. IRRIGATION HARDWARE AND SPRINKLER PACKAGES ($1 - $4) Calcification, heavy sediment, and other conditions cause buildup that, over time, can reduce the efficiency of water delivery in irrigation. Energy-efficient irrigation hardware, such as new nozzles and gaskets, can provide more uniform water application, reduce runoff, and save energy. As equipment wears out, upgrading to more energy-efficient hardware is one of the easiest ways to start saving water and energy. WATER SYSTEM LEAK ABATEMENT Not all leaks in large water distribution systems are visible. Municipal water districts, golf courses, and irrigation distribution systems are examples of systems that may benefit from a leak-detection system survey. These surveys are typically conducted by specialty companies that use ultrasonic sound checks or other specialized equipment. Repairs made as a result of a survey help reduce water and pumping costs, and may be eligible for energy-efficiency rebates. MOTOR REWIND When a motor fails, the user or owner face three choices: to rewind to a lower efficiency, to rewind and maintain the original efficiency to replace it with a new motor of either an EPact or Premium Efficiency Design If the motor rewind resulted in the motor maintaining its original efficiency, it is commonly called a Green Rewind. The Green Motor Rewind can happen at the Green Motor Dealership if offered. If your dealership does not offer, the alternative contacting The Green Motors Practices Group (GMPG). The GMPG is a non-profit organization that identifies, promotes and verifies only excellent member motor service centers. These companies are committed to consistently producing repair/rewinds that retain or improve reliability and efficiency and provide on-site motor driven systems assistance. Key Advantages to the Green Motor Initiative ensures quality rewinding Increases NEMA premium value saves up to 40% of the cost of new Contributes to local economy recycles 98.5% of motor materials uses third-party oversight standards. For more information, contact Green Motors Practices Group: (503) 922-1743 info@greenmotors.org LED LIGHTING FOR SHOPS AND EXTERIOR USES In addition to energy-cost savings of 25 to 50 percent, energy-efficient Light-Emitting Diode (LED) lighting upgrades and controls can increase visual acuity and lighting equipment life, improve security, and may also improve worker safety, productivity, and quality of work. You can save energy by converting old incandescent, halogen, mercury vapor, high pressure sodium and fluorescent lights to more efficient LEDs anywhere on your farm where lights are used. LEDs have improved significantly in the past 10 years, lasting much longer than other types of bulbs, and come in a wide selection of colors and color temperatures (warm or cool light). For greater savings, add controls to these lighting systems to ensure they only operate when needed. CUSTOM PROJECTS Farm buildings and systems are often highly complex and unique. For this reason, many agricultural energy-efficiency opportunities are best approached as custom projects. For these projects, Inland has a team of customer service engineers available to help identify custom project opportunities for retrofit and new construction. Any project expected to save energy is potentially eligible.

HYDRO IS OUR POWER Hydropower is a renewable energy resource created by the energy of falling water. Gravity forces water to flow through specially equipped hydroelectric dams to produce carbon-free and inexpensive electricity that provides the Northwest with nearly 90% of its renewable energy. In 2020, the 31 Federal Columbia River Power System dams located around the Pacific Northwest generated 7,482 average annual megawatts. But when working at full capacity, the dams have the ability to generate up to 22,442 megawatts. That’s enough to power up to 10 Seattle-sized cities. Because dams do not produce carbon emissions when generating electricity, the abundance of hydropower makes the region’s power system the cleanest in the United States and prevents 50 million metric tons of carbon emissions from entering the atmosphere. The Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) comprises 31 hydroelectric projects in the Columbia River Basin, including the four Lower Snake River Dams (LSRD) which have fueled the region’s economic growth for more than 70 years. The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) own and operate the federal projects. The Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) markets the power generated by the projects and distributes it through its transmission system. Together, these three agencies are referred to as the Action Agencies. Click here to learn more about hydropower's many benefits! HELP HYDRO HYDRO SOURCES HYDRO FACTS PNW Hydro by the Numbers HYDRO NEEDS YOUR HELP At Inland Power, we urge everyone to support hydropower projects in the Pacific Northwest. Right now, the four lower Snake River dams dominate conversations at your co-op and across the hydropower industry. Some groups think the dams should be breached. We know that hydro keeps our area’s power carbon-free, affordable, and reliable. We especially believe in the importance of carbon-free hydro to fight climate change to protect salmon, the iconic fish of the Northwest. Inland Power is committed to being part of the solution for science-backed advocacy efforts in support of the lower Snake River dams and salmon, too. Lower Snake River Dams Why is there so much talk about the four lower Snake River Dams? We’re glad you asked! At Inland Power, we purchase our electricity from the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA), and that power is generated by hydroelectric dams in the Columbia River basin. The Snake River is the largest tributary of the Columbia River. The lower Snake River dams, commonly referred to as the LSRD, are four productive hydroelectric dams on the lower Snake River, all located in Washington state. All four produce affordable, reliable, carbon-free power. Salmon Recently, some groups have suggested removing the dams on the lower Snake to aid declining salmon populations. We love salmon as a symbol of all things wild and free, we respect their significance to Tribal communities in the Pacific Northwest and we support re-population efforts on their behalf. Unfortunately, though, removing the dams isn’t the silver bullet for salmon. A changing planet is the biggest threat to salmon, especially warming ocean temperatures. Did you know that Snake River salmon spend about 80% of their lives in the ocean? They run from their birthplace in the Idaho mountains all the way out to the Pacific Ocean and back again in their quest to reproduce! Yes, they encounter dams along the way. But fish ladder technology and billions of dollars in fisheries research and support have allowed salmon to navigate the dams with success rates very similar to those of salmon in free-flowing rivers. Unfortunately, many populations of salmon have declined sharply over the last 150 years along the entire Pacific coast of North America. Commercial overfishing and habitat loss reduced their numbers to near-extinction levels before the first federal dam on the Columbia River was completed in 1938. There is a lot of research about this iconic fish and the many environmental impacts on them. Links to resources, including peer-reviewed scientific research, are located at the bottom of this page. The Bottom Line Warming, acidifying ocean temperatures pose the greatest threat of extinction to salmon. Hydroelectricity is a critical carbon-free resource to fighting climate change. Billions of dollars have been invested in habitat restoration and dam improvements to protect salmon. The latest fish passage technology at dams has helped Columbia and Snake River salmon survive at rates comparable to a free-flowing river. Significant increases in returning adult salmon numbers have occurred since the dams were first constructed. Salmon populations have been declining for the last 150 years. Hydroelectric dams are an easy target, but rivers without dams are seeing the same salmon declines. The latest science points to warming oceans and a shift in predator/prey relationships as the real driver in these declines. Major upgrades to the lower Columbia and Snake river dams have led to a survival rate past each dam of 93% to 99%, depending on the fish species. Dams help reduce carbon emissions and reservoirs keep river temperatures lower – both of which benefit salmon. The proposed breaching of these four Snake River dams would eliminate a total generating capacity of 3,033 Megawatts of carbon-free, renewable energy.

HOW WE RESTORE POWER Once a power outage is reported, Inland Power & Light works hard to restore your power. Below you will see each of the steps involved in getting your power back on. Click to enlarge. When electricity goes out, most of us expect power will be restored within a few hours. But when a major storm causes widespread damage, longer outages may result. Co-op line crews work long, hard hours to restore service safely to the greatest number of consumers in the shortest time possible. Here’s what’s going on if you find yourself in the dark. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How do you decide whose power to restore first? The outage restoration process begins at the point where electricity feeds into Inland Power’s system. This could be at a substation, transmission line or a main distribution line. After these repairs have been made, crews work on remaining outages, beginning with areas serving the greatest number of members and continuing until electricity is restored to all members. Why would an Inland Power crew pass by without restoring the power at my house or neighborhood? If you see an Inland Power crew passing by your house or neighborhood without stopping, it may be because work must first be performed at a nearby location before electric service can be restored to you and your neighbors. Following the outage restoration process ensures all customers have their power restored as quickly and safely as possible. Why does my neighbor have power and I do not? It depends upon the cause of the outage. Remember to make sure your power is not out because of an electrical problem inside your home, such as a tripped breaker. If an electrical problem within your home is not the cause and your neighbor has electricity and you do not, more than likely, they receive their electricity from a different power line or are located on a different circuit than the circuit your home is on. You may also be part of an individual outage. It is important that you report your outage to Inland Power at 1-877-668-8243 to ensure that we know that your power is out. Why can’t you tell me how long it will take to restore my power? Typically, the best source for an estimate of power restoration time is the service crew, and during an outage, they are working to locate faults and restore power, and they don’t always have the time or ability (due to safety reasons) to phone our dispatch team. As a result, during storm-related outages, restoration information may not be immediately available or may be hard to determine with accuracy. Our dispatch team will try take information from the crews to estimate a time of restoration for all outages. This information will be based on past experience and will be updated as more information becomes available.
