CleanBC Better Buildings Program

Better Buildings BC offers a range of incentives intended to help building owners, operators and developers reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in their existing or new commercial buildings.

CleanBC's Custom Incentives offer support to retrofit your current building and explore fuel switching and other electrification measures in larger buildings, while Custom-Lite Incentives are available to help facilitate smaller electrification opportunities across the commercial and institutional building sector. 

The CleanBC Commercial Express Program provides a streamlined application process and does not require an Energy Study to participate. For a limited time, eligible customers can also receive free energy coaching services to assist in fuel-switching and other electrification measures. 

For those looking to construct a new Part 3 Commercial building see the CleanBC Commercial New Construction Incentives.
