Steps To Participate

  1. COMPLETE ENERGY MODELLING

    Work with an energy advisor to estimate the efficiency of your project. Your home’s estimated energy improvement over the minimum energy code must be 25% or more in order to qualify for rebates. We pay a rebate toward the cost of energy modelling for each qualifying dwelling unit.

    You must use an energy advisor employed by one of our approved EnerGuide Service Organizations.

  2. APPLY

    Apply online with the Estimated Performance Summary provided by your energy advisor. Get approval from us, then build your energy-efficient new home! 

  3. GET YOUR EVALUATION & REBATE

    When your home is complete, we’ll conduct a free in-home evaluation which includes airtightness testing. You’ll receive your rebate and official certification shortly after our visit.
