March 4, 2019

Did you know that our Building Energy Challenge partners offer financial assistance to help you plan and successfully complete projects aimed at reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions? They want your energy challenge projects to succeed!

Here are a few examples of the subsidies available for new energy initiatives.

Transition énergétique Québec – Eco-performance[1] Analysis

The Analysis portion of the Eco-performance program helps determine and quantify potential energy-saving measures to reduce fossil fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the cost of implementing those measures.

An energy consumption analysis can help you select the best possible energy-saving measures and estimate the potential energy savings and greenhouse gas reductions that such measures will lead to. It can provide financial analysis to evaluate implementation costs as well as the time frame for a return on investment for each measure, and make recommendations for their implementation.

The Eco-performance Analysis  can help you recover up to 50% of fees paid to external consultants and in-house specialists (salaries and employee benefits), travel costs and rental of measuring equipment, up to the maximum limit allowed. For more details:

The grant can cover up to 50% of the cost of the study, for a maximum amount of $5000 based on the volume of natural gas consumed annually. For more details:
