Retrofit your building with confidence

Working together with industry leaders

The program also aims to reduce emissions from buildings on a larger scale to ensure that deep retrofits are accessible for building owners and managers now, and for years to come.

To do this, we are working collaboratively with industry leaders to support the development of Alberta’s sustainable retrofit industry through capacity building, training, peer-to-peer networking, and research. We are also expanding Alberta Ecotrust’s Emissions-Neutral Buildings Information Exchange (ENBIX) to include events, training, and research related to deep energy retrofit topics.
