Benefits of Participating

Technical Expertise
Participating buildings will access our qualified and experienced member network for help throughout all stages and technical aspects of your heat pump project.

Grant/Financing Support  
We’ll advise you or your client on incentives, grants, and low interest financing that enhance the business case for your heat pump project.

Increased Asset Value
In a carbon emission regulated environment, low carbon properties will be worth more than comparable buildings using natural gas, and face less regulatory and future carbon tax cost risk.

Marketing/Brand Recognition
Our network wide promotion of your project helps build a positive profile for your building and your business to industry, investors and customers.

Increased Tenant Satisfaction and Comfort  
Tenants with their own sustainability commitments are increasingly requiring their landlords to decarbonize their properties. Green buildings command higher rents and tenants experience a higher degree of building comfort and satisfaction when occupying an efficient and low-carbon building.
