Alberta cities with their own home energy programs

7 places in Alberta run a home energy program of their own, and 4 are taking applications now. These stack on top of the Alberta and federal programs every homeowner here can use.

Of the 8 open local programs, 3 are loans, 3 of them repaid on the property tax bill, and 6 pay rebates, grants or free upgrades. Loans pay for the part of the job rebates don’t cover, so we list them but never add them to a rebate total. We only list a place once it has a real program, checked against its own pages.

“Up to” is each program’s own maximum. Loans are repaid; some city grants are per building, not per household.

Alberta city program questions

As of October 19, 2026: Banff (Banff Deep Retrofit Program, Banff Solar Incentive Program, Banff Post-Purchase Rebate Program, Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP)); Calgary (Calgary Home Upgrades Program, Calgary CEIP); Edmonton (Edmonton CEIP, Edmonton Change Homes for Climate Solar Program, HERA); Lethbridge (Lethbridge CEIP); Medicine Hat (HAT Smart EnerGuide rebate, HAT Smart Scratch & Win, Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP), HAT Smart); St. Albert (St. Albert CEIP); Strathcona County (Strathcona CEIP).

3 of the 3 open loan programs (Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP), Calgary CEIP and Edmonton CEIP) are repaid through the property tax bill. Others are repaid to a utility or lender. A loan spreads the cost; it doesn’t reduce it, so we never add loans to rebate totals.

Usually, yes: city programs are designed to sit on top of provincial and federal rebates, and a city loan often pays for the part of the job the rebates don’t cover. Each program sets its own rules for the same work, so check them before you count on both.
