Greenfoot partners with Saint John Energy to provide innovative customer service

August 5, 2021

At Greenfoot Energy Systems, we’re excited to be partnering with the innovative folks at Saint John Energy.

Saint John Energy Partnership


We’re now the company’s delivery partner for its mini-split heat pump rental program, which gives customers a whole new level of choice when making their homes more energy efficient.


One of the few Rental Heat Pump programs offered in Atlantic Canada.


The clever offering by Saint John Energy has proven incredibly popular with its customers, and no wonder – it gives them an affordable, hassle-free way to bring the advantages of a heat pump into their homes.


As of Aug. 1, our teams at Greenfoot became the official installers and maintenance crews for Saint John Energy for heat pump rentals – both existing and new customers – and we couldn’t be more pleased. 


Renting through Saint John Energy is a great, maintenance-free option – we now handle all service on the rental units at no additional cost to the customer. And new rental customers can still qualify for energy efficiency rebates offered by the New Brunswick government.


Heat pumps offer home comfort year-round: warmth in winter, and cool air conditioning in summer. And the ones offered by Saint John Energy are about three times as efficient as electric baseboards!


We’ve offered heat pumps for years as part of our one-stop shopping approach for customers’ energy efficiency needs. Now having this rental option available is another advantage for homeowners.


We couldn’t be more delighted or humbled to be chosen by Saint John Energy to provide this service. We know they didn’t have to pick us. I asked Ingrid Harris, Manager of Consumer Products for Saint John Energy, why we were chosen.


“Greenfoot is progressive – we really were drawn to the forward-thinking approach you take to energy efficiency and customer service. You have a significant presence in Saint John and dedicated service teams that service all major brands,” she said.



“We see these as real advantages for us and our customers,” Ingrid said. “It is really important to us that we choose partners who are as devoted to customer choice and satisfaction as we are.”


That was attractive to us as well. We know that Saint John Energy has a very strong belief in putting the customer first, and that resonates with us.


We also know that it is building the Utility of the Future in Saint John, with a strong focus on innovation on consumer products – bringing new smart services and products into customers’ homes that help them manage their energy needs better. That’s music to our ears.


Years ago, we recognized the exciting potential in Saint John – that was the reason why we set up our office in Saint John back in 2018.


Being a part of the community is important to us. A focus on local partnerships and service is a big part of our success, and a key part of the reason we’ve grown so much over the years – we are proud to offer our unbiased advice on energy efficiency solutions across all three Maritime provinces.


It’s a great time to be working on energy efficiency solutions with homeowners, who today can benefit from energy efficiency rebates offered by both the federal and provincial governments.
