    2024 ONE RED Diesel Engine Program

    The Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy (NDEE) announces that funding is available to Nebraska farmers to replace eligible agricultural irrigation pump diesel engines with all-electric equipment. This program is funded by an EPA grant to NDEE’s ONE RED (Opportunity Nebraska: Reducing Emissions and Decarbonization) Program.

    The diesel engine may be replaced with a new electric motor or by connecting an existing submersible pump directly to the electric grid. NDEE will reimburse 60% of the cost of the new electric motor, installation, and/or required electrical infrastructure (including electric service line extension) up to a maximum rebate of $23,000.
