How Much More Can I Save With Rebates?

The rebate itself that is offered by Energy Efficiency Alberta is only $75 which is relatively low when you see the average costs of furnaces in Calgary. This can go up to $300 with two furnaces and two thermostats.

However, the 15% savings per month on an ECM motor definitely adds up way beyond that small upfront rebate.

What Is Energy Efficiency Alberta?

Energy Efficiency Alberta (EEA) is a new Government of Alberta agency that is dedicated to helping the province save energy. The agency was born out of the Climate Leadership Plan and released their four initial programs to Albertans in the spring of 2017.

Energy Efficiency Alberta Savings Programs

1) Residential No-Charge Energy Savings Program

Every Albertan is eligible for this program, whether you own your own country home or rent a condo in downtown Calgary. An EEA installer will walk through your home and offer energy efficient products — at no charge — to increase your overall efficiency. LED bulbs, high-efficiency showerheads, faucet aerators and advanced power bars are all examples of products that you could receive.

2) Residential Retail Products Program

The second initiative of the EEA is to provide online rebates on certain energy-efficient appliances like refrigerators, washing machines, and smart thermostats. Additionally, they are offering home improvement rebates that can allow Albertans to save on new home insulation or windows to increase overall efficiency.

3) Business, Nonprofit and Institutional Energy Savings Program

For those that own businesses, the EEA is encouraging organizations to replace lightings, water heaters and HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) units with high-efficiency equipment.

4) Residential and Commercial Solar Program

Looking toward the future, the EEA is rewarding those that want to use renewable energy by offering a rebate on the installation of a solar photovoltaic (pv) system.
