Commercial refrigeration incentives in Brooklyn
From Sunset Park's food wholesalers to corner bodegas in Bed-Stuy and Flatbush, Brooklyn has a dense mix of businesses running walk-ins and open cases around the clock.
We survey your refrigeration, match it to Con Edison's 2026 refrigeration measures, and have certified refrigeration technicians do the work — scheduled around your business hours.
Refrigeration Incentives in Brooklyn: what to know
Brooklyn mixes commercial-strip storefronts along avenues like Flatbush, Fulton and 5th Avenue with light-industrial space in Sunset Park, Red Hook and East Williamsburg, and a large stock of walk-up and mid-size multifamily buildings.
Con Edison supplies electricity across Brooklyn, while gas in Brooklyn is generally supplied by National Grid — so Con Edison's incentives here usually center on electric-saving measures.
Permits and local rules in Brooklyn
Work in Brooklyn follows NYC Department of Buildings permitting, and larger buildings are covered by Local Law 97.
Lighting in 2026
Con Edison's 2026 Small Business lighting incentives are offered only in the Jamaica Neighborhood (Southeast Queens) area, so for Brooklyn businesses we focus on HVAC, refrigeration, envelope and electrification measures.

Refrigeration Incentives in Brooklyn: FAQ
Can Brooklyn businesses get refrigeration incentives through Con Edison?
Con Edison supplies electricity across Brooklyn, while gas in Brooklyn is generally supplied by National Grid — so Con Edison's incentives here usually center on electric-saving measures. If your electric bill comes from Con Edison, you can apply.
My gas comes from National Grid — can I still use Con Edison's programs?
Yes, for electric-saving measures, as long as your electricity comes from Con Edison. Gas-saving incentives through Con Edison require a firm Con Edison gas account.
Do you cover all Brooklyn neighborhoods?
Yes. All of Brooklyn is in Con Edison's electric territory.
What refrigeration upgrades does Con Edison offer incentives for?
The 2026 Small Business factsheet lists measures such as anti-condensation door heater controls, automatic door closers, evaporator fan controls, display case replacement, rack compressors and air-cooled condensers. A few others, like ECM fan motors and case lighting, are offered through the Neighborhood Program in Southeast Queens.
Will the work shut down my coolers?
Most controls and motor upgrades take a few hours per box. We schedule work around deliveries and service so product stays cold.
