Partnering for Success

New enrollment. As trade ally network administration has moved, all agreements need to be renewed. We’ve streamlined the application process for those already on the program. Trade allies will have until May 30, 2025, to reapply without any gaps in benefits, including the listing on our Find-a-Trade-Ally search tool.

Here’s what to do:

  1. You will receive a separate email with a personalized code, once you have this code you can complete your enrollment application. Please complete your enrollment application within 30 days.
  2. Fill out the requested information on the enrollment link.
  3. Upload required documents:
      • Certificate of insurance
      • W-9
      • Business license
      • Contractors license
      • Direct Deposit ACH enrollment

    The form submission will update contact information on the customer website and enroll you for participation. Your renewal is complete!

      • New Midstream implementer: Energy Solutions. Starting April 1, 2025, Energy Solutions will become the new implementer of the Wattsmart® Midstream program. While there are no equipment or incentives changes to the program, distributors must complete and sign a new participation agreement prior to submitting projects for payment. Distributors will receive resources and training on Energy Solutions’ application system, Iris. All claim applications for qualified equipment sold on or after January 1, 2025, will be accepted through Iris beginning April 1, 2025.
      • HVAC and other mechanical offerings. For those who participate in HVAC or other mechanical offerings with Wattsmart, you will have new points of contact with Evergreen Energy Partners for prescriptive and custom non-lighting measures. If you would like to participate, kW Engineering staff will be the representatives to support you. Aside from their in-person energy audits and site visits, feel free to reach out with any questions at WattsmartBusiness.com/Contacts.
      • Lighting-only offerings. Trade allies will continue to work with their current field specialists.
      • Whole building new construction/major renovation projects, please continue to work with jballance@resource-innovations.com
      • Enbridge Gas projects, please reach out to bgilchrist@resource-innovations.com.

    A return to “trade ally.” We are reinstating the term “trade ally” instead of “vendor.” It’s a small thing, but we feel it better represents our collaborative relationship with you.

    New Resources

    • Refreshed website. The Trade Ally website now contains valuable program information and updates. Check out the new content at the same online address: WattsmartBusiness.com.
    • Improved visibility. We have a new site and layout for the Find-a-Trade-Ally tool: WattsmartBusiness.com/FindATradeAlly
    • Coming soon! – New application portal. To ensure the quickest processing times and subsequent payments to you, we are working on a streamlined application process. Watch for further updates and trainings in the next couple of months.

    Better yet, come see us in person at our annual trainings:
