Heating Oil Transition Advance Payment

Participants switching from oil to a heat pump through the Total Home Energy Saving Program are required to submit two documents along with their selected contractor quotes.

1. Advance Payment Form (link will be provided when ready)

2. Direct Deposit Enrolment Form

What is the Advance Payment Form? 

The Advance Payment Form allows you to receive money up front to help transition your home from oil heating to electric heat pumps.  This form is submitted with your quotes and contains additional Terms and Conditions stating that all provided information is valid.  The form contains a table to itemize your contractor quotes for the eligible upgrades as part of your heating transition.  Detailed instructions are included in the form.

You will still be eligible for the additional incentives in the Total Home Energy Savings Program if these advance funds do not cover 100% of the costs.  

How do I submit my contractor quotes and Advance Payment Form?

Step 1: Download, fill out, and sign the Advance Payment Form. (will be provided when ready)

Step 2: Save all your contractor quotes in a digital format, either by scanning them, taking a clear photo or saving them from an email.

Step 3: Save and upload the form and selected, final, quotes securely here.   (link will be provided later)

What is my Application ID Number and where can I find it?

Your Application ID Number is a unique identifier that is given to you after you register for an efficiency program. You will find this unique 10-digit number, beginning with five, on most efficiency program correspondence you receive from NB Power.

Do I have to use direct deposit for my advance funds?

NB Power can only provide advance funds by Direct Deposit.  This is a fast and secure way for you to receive your advance funds and does not take long to set up.

How do I apply for direct deposit?

Step 1: Download and fill out the Direct Deposit Enrolment Form

Step 2: Save and upload the form securely here

How do I find my bank account information?

Your account information is on your personal cheques or online account.  You will need to attach a void cheque to your Direct Deposit Enrolment Form. If you can't find the information, call or visit your financial institution.

What if my bank account information changes before I receive my incentive?

To update your banking information, please complete a new Direct Deposit Enrolment Form. Please do not use this form to provide change of address information. If you update your direct deposit information, it is always a good practice to leave your account open until your incentive is deposited into the new account.

Can I use a different bank account for my incentive then the one I use for my Pre-authorized Payment Plan with NB Power?

Yes. NB Power will only use the account information that you have provided on your Direct Deposit Enrolment Form for incentives.
