Canada Greener Homes Grant

June 7, 2021

Saving energy saves you money

Buildings, including our homes, account for 18% of Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions.

The Canadian Goverment wants to help Canadians make where they live more energy-efficient. This means homes will be more comfortable and more affordable to maintain while also supporting our environmental objectives.

The Canada Greener Homes Grant will help homeowners make their homes more energy-efficient, create new jobs across Canada for energy advisors, grow our domestic green supply chains, and fight climate change.

What’s available through the initiative?


Up to 700,000 grants of up to $5,000 to help homeowners make energy efficient retrofits to their homes, such as better insulation.

EnerGuide evaluations (worth up to $600) and expert advice to homeowners so they can begin to plan their retrofits.

Recruitment and training of EnerGuide energy advisors to meet the increased demand; this will create new jobs across Canada.
