CEIP provides financing for up to 100% of the project costs, while providing competitive interest rates. For our municipality, the fixed interest rate is 4%.
The program offers flexible repayment terms of up to 25 years, with the option to repay in full anytime—penalty-free.
Repayments are made through your property tax bill, and the financing remains tied to the property tax obligation (i.e., if you decide to sell your property, you can pay off the balance without penalty or leave the remaining balance with the property tax bill).
A limited time $1,100 Incentive is available for completed CEIP projects. The rebate is applied directly to your Clean Energy Improvement Tax, reducing your total financing amount. This incentive will be applied to your tax roll upon completion of your project.

Completing a clean energy improvement through CEIP follows these eight steps:
Read the CEIP Terms and Conditions. Complete the Pre-Qualification Form at myCEIP.ca. This confirms that you and your property meet the basic program qualification criteria.
Once pre-qualified, schedule an EnerGuide home evaluation to learn about your home’s energy performance. This will help you understand your priority options for home improvements.
Choose a Qualified Contractor at myCEIP.ca/directory and plan your project. Then, submit your Project Application to Alberta Municipalities.
Once approved, you’ll enter into a Clean Energy Improvement Agreement and Project Agreement.
After signing agreements, work with your Qualified Contractor to complete the improvements.
Submit your upgrade completion forms as your improvements are completed.
After your project is complete, a post-project EnerGuide evaluation will provide a new rating and label based on your home’s upgrades.
