 When we announced our clean BC plan, we knew that we had to do something about housing stock here in British Columbia And now I'm pleased to announce that under clean BC We will be adding an additional rebate bringing the total opportunities for savings to three thousand dollars on a heat pump and two thousand dollars on windows It's great to see that there's an increase in rebates that families will now have access to and in doing so also reducing the carbon footprint Heat pumps in general are great for families great for the environment it offers both heating and cooling and In a lot of circumstances We've had families that are able to cut their heating costs basically in half from what they were and at the same time improve their air quality in their house Those rebates help people right away, but over the long term it also helps them with their energy costs I'm really excited about the opportunities that this program will create for businesses as well They get to save money and reduce the footprint reduce the greenhouse gas emissions making BC a cleaner place to live work and play
