When it's time to replace your old, standard-efficiency commercial kitchen equipment the easy solution might be to just swap out the old for new, similar models. But you may want to consider high-efficiency, or ENERGY STAR ® certified, options. They may cost more upfront than standard, or base models, but you'll use less energy over the life of the equipment and that equals dollar savings! Plus, FortisBC's rebates can help you make the initial purchase more affordable.
Not convinced? FortisBC took a look at how much money and energy their customers who upgraded to high-efficiency commercial kitchen equipment were saving. The results might convince you to go high efficiency too. It's all spelled out in this blog post.
Encouraging customers to go high efficiency with rebates is one of the ways the company is working toward its goal to reduce customers' greenhouse gas emissions by 30 per cent* by the year 2030. Called 30BY30, follow their progress here.
