Canada Greener Homes Grant Program

Save money while making your home more energy efficient.

Canada Greener Homes Grant

Buildings, including our homes, account for 18% of Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions. The Canada Greener Homes Grant will help homeowners make their homes more energy-efficient, create new jobs across Canada for energy advisors and retrofit installers, grow our domestic green supply chains, and fight climate change.

What’s available through this 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.

The Canada Greener Homes Grant provides funds for home evaluations and for retrofits, to a total of $5,600. Homeowners are eligible for up to $600 total for the cost of pre- and post-retrofit EnerGuide evaluations and for up to $5,000 total for the implementation of eligible retrofits such as home insulation, windows doors, and air sealing. It is important that you read all eligibility criteria and grant requirements to be sure that you will qualify for reimbursement at the end of the process.

Please Note: Greener Homes Inc. is not affiliated with the Canada Greener Homes Program in any way. We are a company of experienced energy advisors licenced by Natural Resources Canada to perform energy assessments in accordance to the Canada Greener Homes Program. As we are not our own service organization, please select GETS Energy when asked to select a service organization during the registration process.

How the Grant Process Works

Canada Greener Homes Loan

The Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation has partnered with Natural Resources Canada to deliver the Canada Greener Homes Loan Program. It’s an initiative to provide $4.4 billion in interest-free loans, of up to $40,000 per household, helping up to 175,000 homeowners complete extensive home retrofits on their principal residence. This program also works in addition to the Canada Greener Homes Grant Program. 
A maximum of one loan is available per eligible property and homeowner.
The loan can only help you finance eligible products and installations that are part of a retrofit that is both recommended by an energy advisor and eligible for the grant.
To begin work in your home, a portion of the loan can be delivered to you upfront. Contractors often require a down payment for these types of projects. The balance of the loan will be delivered upon successful completion of the retrofits, and verification through a post-retrofit evaluation.
