Lethbridge has become the ninth community in Alberta to launch a program helping residents pay for energy efficient and renewable energy upgrades to their homes.
The Clean Energy Improvement Program through Alberta Municipalities helps to eliminate the upfront cost of installing items like new windows, doors, solar panels, lighting fixtures and more to residential properties by offering low-interest financing through the city.
Residents can pay off the loan for the span of up to 20 years — depending on the project — which is added to property tax payments. The cost of the improvement must be between $3,000 and $50,000
For anyone looking at home repairs, upgrades or leisure items, this is the place. 400 vendors ranging from roofers, plumbers, siding specialists, spas and more are on hand throughout The Monument an in the Summit Arena.
