ecoENERGY Efficiency Initiatives advance Canada's energy efficiency, conservation, and demand-side management, with federal funding to improve buildings, homes, and appliances, lower electricity consumption and bills, cut GHG emissions, and support a secure, sustainable energy future.

 

The Important Points

Federal programs that fund energy efficiency in buildings, homes, and products to reduce energy use, costs, emissions.

  • Federal funding extends ecoENERGY efficiency programs
  • Improves homes, buildings, and electricity-using products
  • Lowers energy bills and reduces peak demand
  • Cuts GHG emissions and supports sustainability
  • CEA partners with government, regulators, customers

 

Investment of $78 million to encourage energy efficiency is a positive development for Canadians who want the means to effectively manage their electricity use.

 

The Canadian Electricity Association CEA and its members welcome today's announcement by The Honourable Joe Oliver, Minister of Natural Resources, that the Government of Canada will maintain its momentum in supporting improved energy use in Canada through additional funding for the ecoENERGY Efficiency Initiatives Program.

“Programs that incent the construction of more efficient homes and improve the energy performance of buildings and electricity-using products result in cumulative and lasting energy and operating cost savings for Canadians, and reduced carbon emissions across Canada,” said CEA President and CEO Pierre Guimond. “Giving energy efficiency a greater role in ensuring a sustainable power and secure energy future and providing industry with measures to improve competitiveness by reducing energy overhead and input cost is sound energy and economic policy.”

CEA member companies have been successfully delivering energy efficiency programming for decades and have pioneered the introduction of energy saving products and programs. They welcome the opportunity to work collaboratively with governments, regulators and customers to help Canadians better manage their electricity consumption, and consequently their bills.
