Are you looking to identify energy and cost savings for your business? Efficiency Manitoba has created a new Commercial Energy Audit Program, where you can receive incentives of up to 50% of the cost of your energy audit. 

Efficiency Manitoba’s Commercial Energy Audit Program offers incentives and technical support for building owners who complete ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) Levels 2 or 3 energy audits. An ASHRAE Level 2 audit can provide energy savings and costs analysis of practical energy efficiency measures that fit your business needs as well as potential adjustments to your operations and maintenance procedures. ASHRAE Level 3 energy audits include all the information obtained in a Level 2 energy audit plus a more in-depth analysis of the cost and energy savings of major capital-intensive building upgrades.

Incentives depend on the building type, size, and number of floors, as well as the ASHRAE Level you choose for an energy audit.

You can receive anywhere from $1,200 to $12,500 to help cover the costs of your energy audit.
