Qualifying energy-efficiency upgrades to windows and doors, along with heat pumps for space and water heating, get double the usual rebate amount for a limited time under BC Hydro's home renovation rebate program.

In response to COVID-19, rebates double for heat pumps, windows and doors

In a bid to help restart the B.C. economy and help customers save energy in their homes, BC Hydro is doubling rebate amounts for select energy-efficient upgrades including heat pumps (for space or water heating), windows and doors.
