Energy efficiency program – Energy audit and implementationStudy and implementation

This program helps defray part of the cost of a feasibility study covering energy efficiency measures. The study will be carried out by an engineering consulting firm accredited by Énergir. If you go ahead with implementing the recommendations of this study, your company will be able to reduce its energy consumption and costs.

Grant – Feasibility study

Énergir financial assistance amounts to 50% of the cost of the study before taxes for a maximum amount based on the annual consumption volume of natural gas.

Grant – Implementation of energy efficiency measures

Énergir’s financial aid is $0.30 per cubic meter of natural gas saved for the first year following the implementation of an energy efficiency measure. The maximum amount of financial aid is $100,000 per account number serviced by natural gas.*

Hydro Quebec Buildings Program

Hydro Quebec Buildings Program

Hydro Québec is offering financial assistance based on the rise or fall of electricity consumption due to the energy efficiency measures taken. It is offered in two tiers:

  • Prescriptive component: for buildings that are smaller than 10,000 m2 and for new buildings that are at least 2,000 m2. The energy efficiency measures are predefined and must save at least $2,500.
  • Catered component: for buildings that are at least 10,000 m2. The measures that are implemented must result in a savings of at least 50,000 kWh/year.

The program is for existing and new commercial and institutional buildings, including multiple-unit residential buildings that are at least 4 floors.
