EPAD – Louisville’s Newest Financing Program for Your Energy Savings Measures
1:00-2:00pm

Louisville Metro Government announced the Energy Project Assessment District (EPAD) program, a financing tool that helps commercial and multi-family property owners pay for energy efficiency upgrades, on-site renewable energy systems, and water conservation measures. Unlike traditional financing, EPAD can provide for 100% of an energy project’s cost and is repaid by participating property owners with a voluntary assessment administered by the Jefferson County Sheriff in the same manner as a property tax bill. This educational session will explain the intricacies of the program, including how to apply, eligibility requirements, the payment structure and annual reporting requirements.

Panelists:

  • Gill Holland, Property Developer and Film Producer
  • Councilman Bill Hollander
  • Maria Koetter, Louisville Metro Director of Sustainability
  • Janet Lively, Harshaw Trane
  • Jonathan Miller, Frost Brown Todd
  • Andrea Webster, Louisville Metro Office of Sustainability
