If your business is in the market for an HVAC or energy systems upgrade, there are many rebates and incentives programs from BC Hydro and FortisBC to subsidize the upgrades to your building.
We recommend energy-efficient systems to future-proof your business. These incentive programs are provided to help our business customers shorten the payback period for simple one- to-one retrofits – so you can reduce your consumption, save on energy costs, and to increase your overall bottom line.
Contact your BC Comfort technician to schedule an assessment to see if require energy efficiency upgrades and whether they will be eligible for rebates.
Energy Star did the Math!
In a 200,000-square foot office building that pays $2 per square foot in energy costs, a 10 percent reduction in energy consumption can translate into an additional $40,000 of Net operating income (NOI). At a cap rate of 8%, this could mean a potential asset value boost of $500,000!
