Social Housing Retrofit Support Program

FortisBC and BC Hydro are working together to help housing providers and charitable organizations save energy and costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in their buildings. Better yet, we’ll help guide you through the process. Note: participants must apply through their key account manager and be approved before accessing funding and rebates through this program. BC Hydro customers can contact their key account managers for more information. Charities that want to participate in the program but do not have a residential building can apply and be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
