Support Programs

Empower Me is Canada's only energy conservation and education change program designed to support communities often underserved by traditional programming. Through community-led workshops and custom advisory services, the program empowers participants to better understand their relationship with energy and their homes. Empower Me helps newcomers and immigrants identify opportunities to save energy and money, reduce their environmental footprint, and improve the comfort, safety, and affordability of their homes. Empower Me programming currently offers in-language support in 16 languages.

The Home Upgrades Program is an energy retrofit program designed to help Albertans reduce their energy consumption by installing energy saving measures and providing free energy education. The program provides different levels of support, products, and installations depending on the home, and how difficult it is for a household to pay their energy bills. All participants receive a free energy savings kit that includes essential items to improve their home's energy efficiency.
