October 24, 2009 | By Anthony Capkun


Funding assistance will be made available for energy efficiency upgrades to commercial and institutional buildings, thanks to new programs at the Office of Energy Efficiency, said Richard Brown, Prince Edward Island’s minister of environment energy and forestry.

“In the past 18 months there have been a number of programs designed to
assist the residential energy efficiency needs of Islanders,” said
Brown. “Now we are introducing the Commercial Sector and Institutional
Buildings Program to help make buildings across the Island more energy
efficient.”

The two programs include the Energy Efficiency Upgrades Program for
Multi-Unit Residential Buildings aimed at residential rental
properties, and the Energy Smart Commercial and Institutional Buildings
Retrofit Program aimed at business properties and institutions. Both
offer assistance for energy audits and for upgrades to improve energy
efficiency.
