Did You Know Your Energy-Efficient Equipment Could Be Subsidized?

Hydro-Québec’s Efficient Solutions Program offers direct subsidies to commercial and industrial property owners who upgrade their energy-efficient equipment. Groupe CMi handles the eligibility analysis and qualification process for your projects in Montréal, on the South Shore, and across Quebec.

The Efficient Solutions Program Addresses Two Distinct Realities

Hydro-Québec designed the Efficient Solutions Program for property owners who consume electricity at scale, but the eligible equipment and subsidy amounts vary depending on the type of building.

Commercial

Property Owners and Managers

Your commercial buildings consume energy continuously: heating, ventilation, air conditioning, lighting. The Efficient Solutions Program directly subsidizes the replacement or upgrading of these systems with certified high-performance equipment.

    • Commercial heat pumps: financial support calculated based on equipment capacity and the energy savings generated
    • Air exchangers and high-efficiency ventilation systems
    • Energy recovery systems for high-occupancy buildings
    • Applicable to offices, retail businesses, and multi-tenant buildings

Industrial

Property Owners and Managers

Industrial facilities often present the greatest subsidy potential. Their electrical consumption is high and their equipment is replaced on long cycles. The Efficient Solutions Program can represent a significant financial lever during your next upgrades.
