June 11, 2020 – Hydro-Quebec is expanding its Efficient Solutions program, enabling businesses to obtain subsidies covering up to 75% of eligible expenses for more than 200 energy efficiency measures.

Quebec businesses can now receive up to twice as much financial assistance as before, says the utility—up to $3 million for a project.

“With our Efficient Solutions program, we have the tool that will make energy efficiency a springboard for economic recovery,” said Éric Filion, president of Hydro-Québec Distribution et Services partagés. “Quebec companies will see a faster return on their investments and a reduction in their operating costs.”

Commercial, institutional and industrial buildings are eligible. Projects can include heating system upgrades, improvements in equipment efficiency, and measures for reducing power losses in lighting.
