SUNB--Commercial and Institutional Buildings
Use our publications, training, tools and other technical information to help choose energy efficiency measures and practices for your existing buildings. If you own small or medium-sized buildings, you may be eligible for our ecoENERGY Retrofit financial incentive or other financing options.
To promote energy efficiency in new buildings, we offer a number of tools and activities including modelling software, training, information, access to stakeholder networks and validation of new building designs.
We are working with other levels of government to encourage the adoption of more stringent energy codes and to update the Model National Energy Code for Buildings. We are also consulting with stakeholders to further develop a voluntary energy benchmarking and rating system for buildings.
For buildings owned or managed by the Government of Canada, we offer the Federal Buildings Initiative, a proven, turn-key solution that enables federal departments and agencies to retrofit their buildings without necessarily using their own capital funds through energy performance contracting.
