1. Mandatory certification for new elevators: All newly installed elevators must obtain elevator green certification from Canada Green Building Council (CaGBC) from 2026, meeting level 2 energy efficiency, low-carbon materials, recyclable ≥85%, zero CFC;

2. Stock transformation target: Carbon neutrality transformation synchronized with old elevator renewal from 2027, 60% of stock elevators compliant by 2030, 80% by 2035, 100% by 2040;

3. Technical requirements: Mandatory energy feedback, intelligent standby, LED lighting, permanent magnet synchronous machine, carbon emission intensity reduced by 40%;

4. Financial incentives: 30% equipment subsidy for carbon neutral elevators, full exemption of green certification fees;

5. Supervision measures: Uncertified new elevators banned from sale, carbon tax imposed on non-compliant stock elevators, fine for exceeding standard from 2028. The policy promotes comprehensive green low-carbon transformation of Canada elevator industry.
