Making Home Energy Upgrades Simple & Affordable​

The Switch West Hants Program helps homeowners navigate their energy efficiency journey by providing personalized support, access to financing, and guidance through available rebates and incentives.
Whether you are upgrading your heating system, improving insulation, or completing other energy-saving projects, the program is designed to make the process straightforward and financially accessible.

What the Program Offers

How It Works

Participants in the program receive:

  • Access to financing for eligible energy upgrades
  • A dedicated Energy Concierge
  • Assistance obtaining contractor quotes
  • Help scheduling home energy assessments
  • Guidance identifying available rebates and incentives
  • Support throughout the entire upgrade process

The goal is to remove barriers to energy-efficient home improvements while helping homeowners maximize savings.

The Switch West Hants Program helps homeowners upgrade their homes without large upfront installation costs. Approved contractors are paid directly through the program, while homeowners repay the project through affordable monthly payments over time. Depending on the project and energy usage, energy savings may help offset loan payments.

Homeowners also receive support from a dedicated Energy Concierge who can help secure financing and rebates, provide technical guidance, and connect them with approved local contractors. The program is designed to simplify the process while maximizing available federal and provincial incentives and rebates.
