State Energy Loans

The Tennessee Small Business Energy Loan Program provides zero-interest* loans of up to $300,000 over a period of time not to exceed seven (7) years to qualified Tennessee-based businesses to help upgrade the level of energy efficiency in their buildings. Businesses who own their own buildings are eligible to apply for loans to install insulation, double pane windows, energy efficient heating, cooling and ventilation equipment and energy efficient lighting. Other measures shown to save energy or decrease demand are also eligible for funding. *Zero-interest loans are available to certified 3-Star Communities, of which McMinnville and Warren County are a part.
