Your real odds

This is an ongoing program where eligibility and project scope determine your support amount, so there is no fixed winner pool to compete against.

Financial support is tied to your specific project's eligible costs, and whether your equipment and approach meet program criteria matters more than timing or competition. Running the OSE tool upfront tells you what you qualify for before you formally apply.

What it takes

Explore program components and participant guides for your business type (commercial, industrial, agricultural, or small business)1–3 hours

Use the OSE online tool to calculate eligible financial support and identify qualifying equipment1–2 hours

Submit via the Simplified Option (OSE tool) or Customized Option for complex projectsA few hours to several days depending on project complexity

Worth knowing

If your efficiency project does not fit neatly into the OSE tool's categories, the Customized Option lets you go beyond the standard equipment list, and most applicants miss this when scoping complex or innovative projects.
