Conservation Programs for Homes

Hydro One Brampton has the information, tools, programs and incentives that our residential customers need to help improve the energy efficiency of their homes, reduce their consumption of electricity and lower their monthly energy bills.

peaksaver®

During hot summer weekdays, when air conditioners are running at their maximum, the demand for electricity is at its highest. These times are known as ‘peak demand’. If you have a central air conditioner (CAC), you can help the province to manage this peak demand by enrolling in the peaksaver® program.

NOTE: The current Peaksaver program is ending August 31st 2011. Customers who wish to sign up for this program, must enrol by August 12th 2011.

The Great Refrigerator Round-up

That old, inefficient second fridge of yours is wasting between $120 - $150 per year in electricity. If you have a fridge that is 15 years or older and is between 10-27 cubic feet, book an appointment today and we will come pick it up for FREE – we'll even haul it out of your basement for you and take care of it in an environmentally responsible manner. When we are finished recycling and reclaiming material, very little will be sent to the landfill!

GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS AVAILABLE

ENERGY STAR®
The ENERGY STAR is an international symbol identifying products that are up to 50% more efficient than the minimum regulated standard in Canada. Manufacturers and retailers of certain products must meet the ENERGY STAR level of energy efficiency before labelling their products with this symbol. It is intended as a simple way for consumers to choose products that will save energy, reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) and save money.

EnerGuide Program
The EnerGuide Program rates the energy performance of a product with others in the same size and class. The program was designed to promote the production, purchase and use of energy-efficient products including clothes washers, dishwashers, refrigerators, freezers, dehumidifiers and heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment. These products are labelled with information on the energy consumption of individual models.
