Your business can receive a free walkthrough energy assessment conducted by an authorized FortisBC consultant. This assessment will identify low- and no-cost energy conservation measures, potential energy efficiency upgrades for you to consider and available rebates from FortisBC.
Eligible apartment building owners can also receive a free energy assessment from the Rental Apartment Efficiency Program.
The energy assessment will help small and medium-sized commercial and industrial customers identify low- and no-cost energy conservation improvements they can make in their businesses and facilities.
After a walkthrough assessment with a FortisBC authorized consultant, you’ll receive a report outlining potential energy efficiency upgrades and information about FortisBC rebates to help save on the cost of upgrading to high-efficiency equipment.
If you decide to proceed with energy-efficiency upgrades, we’ll support you throughout the process, from acquiring quotes and providing technical support, to applying for rebates.
- You must be a FortisBC commercial gas and/or electricity customer, or a municipal electricity customer of Grand Forks, Penticton, Summerland or Nelson Hydro.
- FortisBC electricity customers, including municipal electricity customers, do not need to meet gas consumption requirements to be eligible.
- You must be the owner or long-term leaseholder of a medium-sized business or small industrial or manufacturing facility.
- Complete and submit the energy assessment application.

- On the day of the energy assessment, ensure you’re available for the full day to provide access to your building or facility and all relevant equipment.
- Within 60 days of the assessment, the consultant will send you the report and review the results with you.
