Whatever type of manufacturing you do, energy costs can account for a significant portion of your overhead costs. Whether you are considering upgrades to an existing plant, or are planning to build a new one, FortisBC PowerSense can offer you expert advice as well as valuable rebates on energy-efficient technologies and solutions that will help you get the most out of your energy dollar.
Walk Through Audit
Qualified customers can also take advantage of a free walk-through energy audit conducted by a qualified technical advisor to identify where conservation opportunities exist. If required, we'll also fund up to 50 per cent of an approved consultants fee to conduct a comprehensive energy study.
New Process Design
This program helps industrial customers build energy efficiency into the design of new processes.
- Your project will be assessed by one of our technical advisors or an approved consultant to determine energy saving opportunities. If necessary, a more comprehensive study will be completed and FortisBC PowerSense will pay up to 50 per cent of approved study costs.
- Based on findings, customer has a choice of implementing suggested technology upgrades. Financial assistance for costs exceeding baseline technologies is available to implement approved energy efficiency measures.
Unless otherwise stated, the rebate entitlement is based on 5¢ per estimated annual kWh savings, with the maximum rebate calculated to achieve a two-year payback on incremental cost or 50 per cent of installed cost, whichever is less.
