COMMUNITY ENERGY CONSERVATION PROGRAM

PROGRAMS AND FUNDING
Written By Crystal Thomson-Dick

The Community Energy Conservation (CEC) program provides financial rebates to municipalities to help identify energy-saving opportunities and implement retrofit projects in municipally-owned facilities. The CEC program helps facilities save energy, save money, and become more comfortable.

Municipal facilities can be costly to power, heat, and upgrade to the latest and most efficient technology. The CEC program can help:

  • identify energy-saving opportunities,

  • implement energy-saving projects, and

  • make your buildings more comfortable for staff, guests, and the community.

Municipalities can access up to $500,000 through the CEC program to support energy audits or retrofits in a variety of municipally owned facilities, including:

  • Recreation centres, arenas, pools

  • Libraries, offices, town halls, community halls

  • Public works buildings

  • Fire halls and other emergency operations buildings

  • Water and wastewater treatment facilities, and

  • Eligibility of other facilities is determined on a case-by-case basis
