British Columbians find rebates to save energy and lower greenhouse gas emissions in their homes
Everyone in B.C. is feeling the effects of climate change: from forest fires, to floods, to extreme heat. The CleanBC roadmap to 2030 is B.C.’s plan to lower the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change.As of 2019 in B.C., around 7% of greenhouse gas emissions were from buildings, mainly from the energy used to heat them and provide hot water. By 2030, the province wants to reduce building and community emissions by about 60%.
Here’s how:
Providing incentives for citizens to switch to energy efficient systems and products;
Regularly updating energy efficiency standards to improve products that use or control energy;
Supporting research, demonstration and development of low carbon building materials and construction methods; and
Making all new buildings zero carbon by 2030.
