Going to Town on Energy Efficiency

The Town of Whitbourne has made strides in energy efficiency with the installation of a mini-split heat pump and upgraded insulation in community facilities. These improvements are a testament to Whitbourne’s commitment to sustainable growth and environmental stewardship, offering residents improved comfort, reduced energy costs, and a lighter ecological footprint.

As the historic “hub of the Avalon,” Whitbourne has long served as a vital inland community with ties to the Newfoundland Railway and the enduring legacy of Sir Robert Bond. The town’s scenic landscape, highlighted by Sir Robert Bond Park and the Wetlands Conservation Trail, offers a rich heritage and abundant natural beauty, further enhanced by these energy-efficient upgrades. This investment in sustainability not only brings modern benefits to Whitbourne but also preserves the integrity of its unique surroundings and invites future generations to experience the same charm and warmth that have long characterized the community.

With the help of takeCHARGE’s Business Efficiency Program the town got back $730 in rebates. And that’s not all. Because of these energy-efficient upgrades, they are now saving $830 annually. Now they’re saving energy and money every month, and their staff and customers are cozier than ever.

Over 1,200 local businesses across Newfoundland and Labrador have saved with the Business Efficiency Program. Some are buying energy-efficient products right off the shelf, and others are working with us to find custom solutions. That’s why the takeCHARGE Business Efficiency Program is here — to help local municipalities, big and small, save energy and money.
