Join the Trade Ally Network
The FortisBC Trade Ally Network connects contractors with customers who are looking for safe, energy-efficient equipment installation and service. We encourage gas contractors that are licensed with Technical Safety BC to join, as well as electric HVAC and commercial lighting contractors operating in our electricity service area.
Benefits of Trade Ally Network membership

- An annual training allowance can help with the cost of approved industry training.
- Co-op advertising funding can help with the costs of advertising the sales and service of energy-efficient products, reducing your marketing expenses and raising your profile in the communities you serve.

- Advance notice about rebates for your customers can help them benefit from installing high-efficiency systems and appliances. You’ll receive periodic newsletters and email notifications of new programs.
