Commercial Boiler Program
The SaskEnergy Commercial Boiler Program is designed to encourage the use of appropriately sized high-efficiency natural gas hydronic space-heating systems in commercial new construction and retrofit applications. You can increase the energy efficiency of your system and lower your costs by taking advantage of financial incentives for installing or upgrading to condensing boilers.
This offer is funded by SaskEnergy and is available from July 7, 2008 until November 30, 2009.
Note: This program does not apply to buildings that receive more than 30% of their annual operating and/or capital funding from the Province of Saskatchewan.
Incentives
For all participants, the
purchase price incentive applies to the
incremental price of a natural gas condensing boiler over the purchase price of a standard-efficiency boiler. Purchase price incentives are based upon space-heating, ventilating and domestic hot water load. They will be calculated as follows:
Boiler incentives for condensing boilers will be calculated as follows:
$16 per 1,000 BTU/hr for the first 600,000 BTU/hr
$5 per 1,000 BTU/hr above 600,000 BTU/hr
Boiler incentives for near condensing boilers will only be offered if used in a hybrid system with at least one condensing boiler. In this case, near condensing boilers are
eligible for the following incentive:
$3 per 1,000 BTU/hr.
The boiler system price is the applicant’s purchase price of the boiler system net of any vendor rebates including installation labour, venting and accessories.
Note: This program does not apply to buildings that receive more than 30% of their annual operating and/or capital funding from the Province of Saskatchewan.
In addition, leasing is available, OAC, from your SaskEnergy Commercial Network Member to cover the remaining costs associated with the equipment, engineering and installation.
