The British Columbia government is allocating $100 million over the next two fiscal years to deliver more than 8,000 heat pump rebates, expanding eligibility to individual suites in multi-unit residential buildings.

The move is part of a commitment the governing NDP made in its confidence agreement with the B.C. Green Party, aiming to make the electric heating alternative more affordable for low-income residents, according to the agreement.
