NEW!

♦ Businesses eligible for EEIP rebates as of September 1, 2009.
♦ 50% rebate of NWT rebate on purchases made outside NWT but within Canada.

The Energy Efficiency Incentive Program (EEIP) was designed to help homeowners and consumers purchase new, more energy efficient models of products that they use every day.  Buying energy efficient products will help you save energy costs while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  

Please note that the GNWT has updated the EEIP effective September 1, 2009. These changes were made to help consumers deal with the cost of heating their homes. Check out the new rebates for low flush toilets.
