Energy Efficiency Incentive Program (EEIP)

 

 

 

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 July 2010. These changes were made to help consumers deal with the cost of heating their homes. Check out the new rebates for residential insulation, doors, windows, and drain water heat recovery systems.

How the EEIP Works

  1. Purchase an eligible product from a participating NWT dealer.  They have the full list of eligible products and the application forms.

  2. Complete the application form and attach a copy of the sales receipt and, if provided, a copy of ENERGY STAR or CARB 3 documentation. Make sure the sales receipt (proof of purchase) clearly indicates payment in full, the amount paid, and the make and model of the product.

  3. Mail, fax or deliver the application form and a copy of the sales receipt to the Arctic Energy Alliance.

    • To qualify for the new rebate categories the sales receipt must be dated September 1, 2009 or later. Products purchased prior to this date will still qualify for rebates under last year's EEIP.

    • Please allow six weeks for delivery of your rebate cheque.
