Set your real estate development apart by making it Power Smart!

Elemental Energy Advisors on Vancouver Island is reporting that BC's Power Smart New Home Program has new eligibility requirements. Effective October 1, 2013, you must provide EnerGuide labelling within six months of your occupancy permit to be eligible for Power Smart incentives. Developers must achieve an Energy Guide rating of 80 and above to qualify for incentives of up to $200 per home for row houses, townhouses, and duplexes, and up to $2,000 per home for single-family dwellings.

There is also an ENERGY STAR Package incentive in the amount of $150 per dwelling for installing the following four products:

  • refrigerator;
  • clothes washer;
  • six CFL or LED bulbs (considered to be one product); and
  • bathroom ventilation fan.

All four of these products need to be installed to qualify for the rebate. Dishwashers are no longer included in the offer.
