Five Ways to Streamline Your Energy Savings for Business Program Application
View these five tips on how to successfully submit an application: Submit complete applications for quicker approvals This program is designed to help Alberta businesses make investments in energy-saving technologies. The review process is designed to ensure that the funds are dispersed as quickly as possible, respecting the program rules. You can help your application move through review more quickly by making sure all required information and documents have been submitted with your application, including specification sheets, measure cost breakdowns by equipment, labour and design costs, and other supporting materials specific to the measures you select. Split applications for a quicker review You can also have multiple applications for one facility but remember: an application can only be assigned to one facility and measures must only be installed within that facility.

Use technologies that are best suited for your project
They support a wide range of emissions reduction technologies and the Program is intended to be brand neutral. However, products must meet efficiency standards, and there may be additional technical requirements to ensure safe and high-quality products for Albertans. As such, not necessarily every make, model, or brand will be accepted
They recommend speaking with a local contractor to understand what range of products will be best suited for your specific project and circumstances that will meet the minimum technology requirements. To see the full list of supported technologies, please refer to our Eligible Measures List, which can be viewed here.
Wait to receive the next steps from the ESB Team
Applications are reviewed as quickly as possible. The ESB Team will email the applicant within 2 to 5 days after submission to confirm that the review process has begun. If an application is deemed incomplete, the review team will send an email requesting the missing information.
Due to the current high volume of applications, reviews may take up to 10 business days once all the required information has been received.
