We've enhanced the former Low Income Energy Savings Program to reach even more New Brunswickers.
The Enhanced Energy Savings Program will assist homeowners in New Brunswick to reduce their energy consumption and energy costs through targeted energy efficiency retrofits. Upgrades will be offered to the homeowner free of charge and will be completed by a Contractor selected by NB Power.
Upgrades could include the addition of basement, attic and wall insulation, ventilation for air quality or humidity issues, mini-split heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling and energy-efficient light bulbs.
“I can now work comfortably in my workshop every day, even on bitterly cold days.”
Whether it’s drafty windows and doors, a cold basement, or a chilly attic, the Enhanced Energy Savings Program can help lower monthly energy costs with free efficiency upgrades.
