New Construction Program

What it looks like: featured projects

A look at how owners, developers, and design teams of new commercial buildings have benefited from participating in the New Construction Program.

Incentives to study system design

Financial incentives for medium to large buildings are available to study different energy saving systems.  Potential electricity savings must be at least 50,000 kWh.

Whole Building Design

We offer financial incentives for large buildings in the early stage of the design process that have potential electricity savings with at least 50,000 kWh.

BC Hydro and FortisBC have aligned their programs so you can use one approved Whole Building Design energy study to apply for both the New Construction Program and FortisBC capital incentives.

Energy Efficient Lighting System Design

We have financial incentives for energy efficient lighting design in small to large buildings, including multi-unit residential buildings.

To qualify, you must have potential electricity savings of at least 10,000 kWh.
