- provide an invoice/proof of purchase listing the brand and model of the installed product
- provide proof of delivery and/or address
- sign an assignment form.
Find an accredited provider in your area
Please note that as VEU is a market-based program:
- not all accredited providers listed above will necessarily be offering energy efficient television incentives at present
- accredited providers can choose when, where and what activities they offer.
How to check if a person or business is accredited under the VEU program
Go to the Essential Services Commission’s Registry of Accredited Persons:
- select the 'Business Name' drop-down menu
- scroll until you see the accredited provider you are searching for.
