Municipal Energy Conservation Program

Welcome to the Municipal Energy Conservation Program website. Here you'll find information for municipalities about programs and funding that are currently available through the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC). This program provides municipalities with financial assistance to help them become more energy efficient, reduce energy costs, and lower their greenhouse gas emissions.

How can we help your municipality:

An area coordinator will schedule a visit with your municipality and perform a room-by-room inventory of municipal buildings, analyzing all lighting and heating equipment, pumps and motors. Once this information is collected a detailed report will be written, which outlines the current equipment installed, recommended equipment upgrades and the associated energy and cost savings. Once the report is completed, an application for funding through SRC may be submitted if any of the recommended changes are made. The maximum amount of reimbursement available in any one fiscal year (April 1 to March 31) is $100,000 per municipality.

Please note that the inventory and report are a FREE SERVICE available to all Saskatchewan municipalities.

Municipal Energy Conservation Database

If you are a municipal representative and already have an account please login at the left of the screen. If you would like to sign up for an account and inventory please click on the Sign Up link.

The Municipal Energy Conservation Database is a tool for the Municipalities of Saskatchewan to view facility profiles for each municipal building with a room-by-room log of current lighting equipment, and a corresponding energy efficient upgrade.

The database may also be used to examine power and energy consumption of individual buildings. This can be a useful tool to help monitor and analyze cost savings when making energy conservation choices for your municipality.

To learn more about these exciting programs please browse through the website or contact one of SRC’s area coordinators.
