CEIP in the works for Spruce Grove

The City of Spruce Grove is taking steps to develop a Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) that would provide property owners with financing to make energy efficient and renewable upgrades (including solar panels) to their property. Property owners would pay back the loan through their regular property tax bill over the lifespan of the upgrade (or sooner if they wish).

In May 2024, the City submitted the full application to the federal government for the Clean Energy Improvement Program. It is anticipated that the earliest that Spruce Grove residential property owners could apply for the CEIP would be in 2025, and 2026 for non-residential property owners.
