In Québec, numerous grants are available to help you achieve carbon neutrality by 2050.
Our engineering expertise and use of cutting-edge technology allow us to leverage the maximum amount of financial assistance available, thereby maximizing the profitability of your buildings and their operations.
Our optimization department handles your project from A to Z, from the initial estimate, through engineering, grant applications, and project implementation, to comprehensive monitoring of your savings throughout your payback period.
At first glance, undertaking an energy efficiency project may seem costly. However, did you know that there are many subsidies available to help you reduce project costs and your energy impact on the environment? BAULNE helps its clients apply for the various energy optimization grants to obtain maximum financing to offset the costs of their efficiency measures. There may be multiple energy optimization grants available for the project being considered, thereby decreasing implementation costs without compromising energy savings.
Below are the most relevant energy optimization grants available to our clients across the commercial, industrial/manufacturing, institutional, multi-residential and office tower sectors.
Please note that our team is available at any time to answer your questions.
