At the January Monticello Economic Development Commission Board Meeting, Entergy Arkansas presented Maxwell Hardwood Flooring with a rebate check in the amount of $24,044 for energy efficiency improvements implemented at the plant last year.

Representatives from Maxwell Flooring met with Entergy and CLEAResult early last year to discuss ways to save on their electric bill. The rebate was a result of lighting improvements recommended by CLEAResult, the energy efficiency partner that manages Entergy Arkansas’s commercial and industrial energy efficiency programs.

Maxwell thanked Entergy for making the program available and easy to implement. He said it was a “no brainer” for them to take advantage of what was available. They hope to implement other energy-saving initiatives in the future.

“If you have even had a thought about making improvements to your home or business that would save energy, I encouraged you to call us,” said Tandee White, customer service manager for Entergy Arkansas. “We have programs that fit almost every need – residential, commercial, industrial, city, school, etc. Our partners for these programs help make it easy to manage and calculate your savings. The key is to call before you make the change. In some cases, to award rebates, they need to collect data before improvements are made.” For more information on energy efficiency programs through Entergy Arkansas, go to www.entergyarkansas.com and click on Entergy Solutions or call 1-877-212-2420.
