Enhance Energy Efficiency and Sustainability with Green Canada Energy Advisors
Enhance Your Building’s Energy Efficiency and Value
Improve your building’s energy management and reduce energy waste with Save on Energy’s Existing Building Commissioning (EBCx) program. By implementing best practices in building operations and maintenance, you can enhance occupant comfort, increase profitability, and contribute to a more sustainable future.
What Does the Program Offer?
The EBCx program provides financial incentives to commercial building owners in Ontario. These incentives can be used to hire qualified commissioning providers who will conduct building recommissioning. This process helps identify potential energy conservation measures and implement recommended improvements to optimize facility operations and maintenance (O&M) practices
Additionally, the program offers pay-for-performance incentives based on the achieved energy savings resulting from the implemented practices. Participants will receive training from the commissioning provider to integrate ongoing commissioning into their standard management practices, ensuring long-term energy efficiency and sustainability.
Program Benefits:
Maximize Profitability and Property Value
Boost your bottom line by reducing operating costs and extending the life of your equipment. These energy-efficient practices lead to increased profitability and higher property values.
Minimize Environmental Impact
Work with a commissioning provider to identify energy-saving opportunities and reduce your carbon footprint. By implementing sustainable practices, you can contribute to a greener future.
Cultivate a Culture of Continuous Improvement
Gain valuable training on building management practices and embrace a mindset of continuous improvement. This approach ensures that savings persist over time, resulting in long-term benefits for your organization.
