Program Details for Customers
Small Business Lighting
The Small Business Lighting program will continue to provide small business owners with a free, turnkey solution to improve their business lighting. Customers will work with the program provider, who takes care of getting all necessary approvals and installing the project. Current customers who have had their assessment, but not completed their project, should touch base with Burman Energy to sign off and submit any outstanding work orders before April 1, 2019. Projects must be installed prior to May 1, 2019. Going forward, the program will be delivered by the IESO.
For more information contact SmallBusinessLighting@ieso.ca or call the Save on Energy call centre at 1-877-797-9473.
Retrofit Program
All new Retrofit program applications and services will be handled by the IESO directly as of April 1, 2019. Any applications that haven’t received Lakeland Power’s approval before May 1, 2019 will be transferred to the IESO for follow up.
Customers with existing approved projects that are already underway can continue to look to Lakeland Power Distribution Ltd. for information and support until the project is completed.

Heating and Cooling Program
The Heating and Cooling program is coming to a close and should not be considered for new HVAC projects.
Here’s what you need to know if you have a project that has been or will soon be completed:
Contact your participating contractor for more information about program deadlines. If an application has already been submitted, you can check the status of your rebate online. (Note that you will need your incentive ID number to look up your rebate).
Once a participating contractor submits a rebate application for your project, you will receive an email from Save on Energy asking you to sign-off on the application and submit proof of purchase of the equipment. You will need to do this before July 1, 2019 in order to receive the rebate.
If your application is approved, you will receive a cheque within 12 weeks. Specialized programs Closing
