Hydro-Québec and Energir offer the bi-energy system, also known as the "bi-energy tariff", a program designed to encourage the use of renewable energies and promote energy efficiency in Quebec homes currently heated with fossil fuels. Here's a general explanation of the system:

 

  1. Combination of energy sources: The dual-energy system combines two energy sources for home heating. It generally integrates the use of electricity and another energy source, such as oil, propane or natural gas.

  2. Use of electricity in mild weather: When outside temperatures are milder, the dual-energy system encourages the use of electricity, which is often cleaner and more energy-efficient. Electricity is used to heat the house during these periods.

  3. Use of an alternative energy source in cold weather: When temperatures are colder, the system switches to the use of an alternative energy source (e.g. oil). This maximizes energy efficiency and reduces costs during peak periods.

  4. Differentiated pricing: Dual-energy tariffs generally involve differentiated pricing according to the time of year and outside temperature. The idea is to encourage consumers to use electricity during periods when it is more abundant and less expensive.

  5. Environmental and economic benefits: By using electricity during milder periods, the dual-energy system helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promotes the use of a cleaner energy source. What's more, it can help consumers save on their energy costs.

  6. Subsidy of up to $5,900: By using the bi-energy program, you may be eligible for a subsidy of up to $5,900 from Energir and Hydro-Québec.
