Enbridge Incentives 2026
Based on the Enbridge 2026 Institutional Brochure, the Controls Limited-Time Offer is an enhanced incentive program designed to encourage the installation of energy-efficient control systems. This offer provides significantly higher financial returns compared to standard incentives but requires strict adherence to specific deadlines in 2026.
Financial Incentives
This limited-time offer provides a substantial increase in funding compared to standard programs. The specific financial benefits include:
Higher Rate
Participants receive $1.20 per $m^3$ of natural gas saved. This is significantly higher than the standard year-round incentive rate of $0.40 per $m^3$.
Cost Coverage
The program covers up to 75% of the upgrade costs. This is an increase from previous coverage levels of 50%.
Maximum Cap
Projects are eligible for up to $100,000 per project.
Overall Increase
These specific controls incentives represent a 20% increase over previous offerings.
Critical Deadlines
To qualify for this specific offer, institutions must meet two strict deadlines.
Purchase Order
A purchase order for the project must be submitted by August 31, 2026.
Project Completion
The projects must be completed and submitted by October 31, 2026.
Eligible Projects
This offer applies to “eligible controls projects”. While specific eligibility should be confirmed with an Energy Solutions Advisor, the brochure generally associates control optimization with “quick wins” from an OpEx budget, such as:
- Boiler controls optimization.
- Ventilation controls optimization
Other potential project categories listed in the brochure’s table that often involve controls include linkageless controls, building automation system sequencing, and variable frequency drives (VFDs) to reduce air losses.
