Energy Conservation Assistance Program (ECAP)

​The Energy Conservation Assistance Program (ECAP) is a province-wide initiative administered by BC Hydro and FortisBC, aimed at supporting income-qualified households in improving energy efficiency and reducing energy costs. By offering free energy-saving products, personalized energy evaluations, and professional installations, the program not only helps families lower their utility bills but also contributes to environmental sustainability and energy conservation across British Columbia.

​

Our Role in ECAP
At It’s On Electric Company, we were proud to play a key role in this transformative program from May 2018 to December 2024, delivering comprehensive services across the province. Working through regional hubs, we ensured that communities from urban centers to remote areas benefited from ECAP.

​

Recruitment of Participants

Our team actively engaged with communities to identify and recruit eligible households for the program. Through local outreach, partnerships with community organizations, and awareness campaigns, we connected with residents who could benefit most from energy-saving upgrades. By prioritizing accessibility and inclusivity, we ensured a broad reach, supporting diverse communities across British Columbia.

​

Energy-Saving Installations

As part of the program, we provided tailored energy solutions to meet the unique needs of each home. These installations included:

​

  • LED Lighting Upgrades: Replacing inefficient light bulbs with energy-efficient LED lights to reduce electricity consumption.

  • Weatherstripping and Draft Sealing: Improving insulation by sealing drafts around windows and doors to enhance energy retention.

  • Energy-Saving Appliances: Installing high-efficiency refrigerators, thermostats, and other appliances to optimize energy use.

  • Water-Saving Fixtures: Adding low-flow showerheads and faucet aerators to reduce water and energy use.

  • Insulation Enhancements: Assessed attic and wall insulation to improve overall home energy efficiency.

Province-Wide Impact

The scope of our work extended across the entire province, ensuring that communities large and small received the benefits of the program. By operating through strategically placed hubs, our team was able to efficiently deliver services and respond to the unique challenges and needs of different regions. From the Lower Mainland to northern BC, our efforts contributed to meaningful energy savings and improved home comfort for countless households.

​

This program reflects our dedication to promoting energy efficiency and sustainability while making a positive impact on the lives of families throughout British Columbia. At It’s On Electric Company, we are proud to have been a trusted partner in delivering ECAP’s vision of a greener, more energy-conscious future.
