Innovation is helping shape Quebec’s energy future. That’s why Énergir supports initiatives that could lead to new solutions, approaches or technologies with strong market potential that promote reduced natural gas consumption and GHG emissions.

Supporting innovative projects helps validate:

The efficiency, profitability and commercial acceptability of new technologies or approaches to energy efficiency 
The innovative use of existing technologies
The complementary integration of renewable energy

Submit your project and help shape Quebec’s energy future.

Énergir is particularly interested in innovation projects in the following four categories:

1
Solutions that integrate digital intelligence
Solutions for identifying energy efficiency measures, deploying an advanced energy management system or optimizing building and process control and maintenance.
2
Efficient natural gas technologies
Natural gas heat pump technologies or high-efficiency hybrid systems.
3
Innovative renewable energy projects
Innovative renewable energy solutions that complement the use of traditional natural gas; heat recovery measures for waste heat and energy loop design.
4
Other types of projects sought
- More efficient use of natural gas as a transportation fuel
- Energy efficiency in greenhouse cultivation
- Optimization of an industrial process
