BESI incentives reduce the payback period of your initial investment, making upgrades an easy decision. Depending on your energy usage and efficiency upgrades, you can save an average of $2,400 per year on your electrical bill. Business customers can upgrade any of the equipment listed below with eligible, energy-efficient models, and will be provided funding to cover up to 25% of the upfront costs.
You can request a referral for a member of the Alliance of Energy Professionals. This is a network of energy efficiency trade professionals registered with BC Hydro. If you are already working with a contractor, you will need to ensure that they are a registered Alliance member to qualify for the incentives. Please ask your contractor to confirm and request their contractor ID or reach out to the Alliance team to verify.
Energy-saving incentives apply to simple, one-for-one replacements and add-ons, such as replacing 300 four-foot fluorescent lamp fixtures with LED four-foot luminaires or retrofit kits.
You can select from a range of eligible configurations and products in the e-Catalog.
Before commencing your project, you must register for a Conservation and Energy Management (CEM) Hub account to obtain pre-approval for your project and submit the incentive application.
After completing your project, please submit your final documentation in CEM Hub. Once approved, BC Hydro will process your incentive payment.
BC Hydro’s Business Energy Saving Incentives (BESI) program now includes tubular lamp replacements, offering incentive funding for these energy-saving retrofits.
With new, easy-to-install LED tubes and improved tech, upgrading your lighting has never been smoother. Just make sure they’re Design Lights Consortium (DLC) approved!
And there’s more – LED incentives are now 10% bigger, plus they have reactivated HVAC upgrades, including CO2 sensors and occupancy controls.
So, whether you’re swapping out old lights or upgrading your HVAC, now’s the perfect time to take advantage of these boosted incentives. Save energy, save money, and brighten up your space with BESI’s latest offerings—because making your business more efficient has never been easier (or more rewarding)!
