As part of the Climate Leadership Plan approved by Council in November 2020, one of the priority actions included promoting existing rebates accessible to residents and property owners. Please note that the programs listed below may not be exhaustive. In addition, these incentives and rebates are offered externally to the District and availability of funds and qualifying terms are subject to change.
Transportation of goods services is the most significant source of GHG emissions in Highlands. Emissions in our community are estimated to have grown over 20% since 2007 mostly due to an increase in emissions from motor vehicles for on-road transportation.

Fossil fuel heating systems such as propane, natural gas, oil and diesel, as well as wood heating, result in GHG emissions. Due to BC’s supply of low-emission hydroelectricity, electricity results in a relatively small amount of emissions. Incentive programs are available to reduce barriers to decommissioning fossil fuel heating systems and replacing them with low carbon heating systems such as high efficiency electric heat pumps as well as other building efficiency upgrades.
