Sleeping Well battery-powered A/C units from Red Dot (R-1200-1P and R-1205-0P) are SmartWay-verified and eligible for government grants and rebates, as well as a federal excise tax exemption.

Do you know they’re also eligible for rebates under the Shorepower Truckstop Electrification Project (STEP)?

Under STEP, rebates are provided for approved idle-reduction equipment that can be recharged and operated through an electrical connection at a plug-in site or that has the option to run on a standard 120-volt AC electrical connection.

The program provides incentives of up to 20% of the installed price or to a maximum set according to the specific type of equipment. For battery-powered HVAC systems, the maximum is $1,600 (paid directly to the installer).

STEP rebates are open to individual owner-operators and to fleets.

Equipment purchases must be approved prior to installation and can be used to complement factory installed idle reduction equipment on new truck orders. Rebate forms can be filled out on-line or downloaded here.
