Energy Audits

A manufacturing company located in Nebraska is eligible for exemption from sales tax paid on electricity, provided at least 51% of the energy consumed is used in the manufacturing process. If you are a manufacturer or will be establishing an operation within OPPD’s service area, our Economic Development team can help with the required energy assessment.

Not only does our economic development team work to bring jobs and capital investment to the community, it lays the groundwork for improved infrastructure, tax legislation and growth, and incentivizes communities to thrive.
