Eligible Projects

To apply for the Industrial Building Incentive Program (IBIP) for the design of industrial facilities, the building should include manufacturing or other processes. Eligible facilities with building permits drawn after April 1, 2002, qualify.

You must show that the proposed design is expected to consume at least 15 percent less energy than a standard or reference building based on the Model National Energy Code for Buildings (MNECB), and at least 10 percent less energy due to specific process improvements. Overall, the building should be at least 25 percent more efficient than other similar facilities.

Funding Opportunities

Your incentive is based on the difference between the simulated annual energy savings of the proposed design and the annual energy costs of the reference building, with credit provided for improvements in process energy use that affect the building.

• Up to $80,000 or actual design costs, whichever is less – To qualify for this amount, your design must consume 25 percent less energy than a reference building. The incentive is based on twice the value of the annual savings.
• Up to $2,000 for technical and modelling support – We offer you the opportunity to have a consultant specifically assigned to provide technical support for your project submission and to assist you with building modelling.
• In some cases, projects may be eligible for complementary incentives from other funding sources.
