Home Energy Rebates in Around Town
Two Vancouver Island jurisdictions are helping their communities improve their home’s energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gases.
The City of Campbell River is providing $15,000 in funding from the Climate Action Reserve Fund to extend their top-up rebate for electric air source heat pumps. The rebate will now be available until March 31, 2024. The program adds $350 to the CleanBC Better Homes and BC Hydro rebate when switch from a fossil fuel (oil, natural gas, or propane) heating system to an electric air source heat pump. The program is administered by the BC Government and rebates will be approved on a first-come, first-serve basis. For information and eligibility requirements, visit betterhomesbc.ca/rebates/campbell-river-heat-pump-top-up.
The Comox Valley Regional District has introduced the Home Energy Navigation Service for homes in Courtenay and Cumberland. Interested residents will be assigned a virtual energy coach to help identify federal and provincial rebates available on windows, insulation and primary heating sources. Participants can also expect help selecting a contractor; help reviewing quotes and EnerGuide reports; review of required documentation for application; verification of eligibility; and regular check-ins to ensure progress when needed.
