Energy efficiency program– Energy audit and implementation
Feasibility Study and Implementation
The Feasibility Studies grant helps companies conduct feasibility studies with a consulting engineering firm to assess different energy efficiency scenarios and greehouses gas (GHG) emissions. The Implementation of Energy Efficiency Measures grant helps companies implement the energy efficiency measures identified through feasibility studies.
Why conduct a feasibility study?
The study is carried out by an energy efficiency engineer. He will analyze your company’s facilities and energy data, then propose cost-effective solutions to reduce and optimize energy consumption and avoid GHGs.
Each detailed solution includes estimated savings, costs and possible grants, so you can make informed decisions when planning and implementing any of the proposed solutions.
Grant - Feasibility study
Covers up to 50% of study costs
Énergir financial assistance amounts to 50% of the cost of the study before taxes for a maximum amount of $50,000. 1
Grant - Implementation of energy efficiency measures
Receive up to $1/m³ of natural gas saved
Once an energy efficiency measure has been implemented, this Énergir's grant offers $1 per m3 of natural gas saved in the first year. The maximum grant amount is $1,000,000 per account number serviced by natural gas. Financial assistance is awarded according to the sector of activity and the return on investment period (ROI)1.
New: Up to $15,000 in energy tracking grants.
This grant is for current or future Énergir customers1 who:
1. Operate in the commercial, institutional, industrial sectors
2. Use natural gas as the main source of energy for heating the building covered by the project.
- Consult the Participant's guide for complete details.
- Select a consulting engineering firm to assist you with your project.The firm must be on the list of registered firms and only an engineer who is a member of Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec will be responsible for determining energy savings.
- The consulting firm you have chosen will send us all the documents needed to review your application. It must submit your application to Énergir before the study and before any measures are implemented.

Renewal natural gas: your decarbonization ally
Once your energy-efficiency measures are in place, you can replace your natural gas consumption with renewable natural gas.
RNG is 100% renewably sourced energy that reduces your GHG emissions without your needing to change equipment.
Conditions
Program subject to change without notice. For all the eligibility criteria of the program, see the Participant's Guide.
1. Conditions apply. Measures should be recommended either by a technical-economic feasibility study, or by a report or any other relevant document signed by a member in good standing of the l'Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec working for a registered firm.
2. Measures whose return on investment (ROI) period is less than one year are not eligible. Measures already covered by our energy efficiency programs should be separate from other energy saving measures, because they are not eligible. Program subject to change without notice. For all the eligibility criteria of the program, see the Participant's Guide.
