Canada Greener Homes Grant – Spring Update

” Since January 2022, an additional 39,000 Canadian homeowners have applied for the Canada Greener Homes Grant. That is almost 300 new homeowners each day, committed to making their homes more energy-efficient and resilient to climate change. As of June 8, 2022, just over a year since the grant’s official launch on May 27, 2021, over 171,000 applications have been received through the national portal. The Canada Greener Homes Initiative has also issued $38 million in grants to 10,300 homeowners. That represents grants in the hands of three-quarters of all homeowners who have completed their retrofits to date. We have worked hard to issue payments within our service standard of 40 business days from the time we receive the final receipts and required documentation from the homeowner. Currently, we are meeting this standard 92% of the time, surpassing our 90% target, and we are getting faster as we go.

The Canada Greener Homes Initiative has been extremely popular since its launch, helping homeowners across the country retrofit their homes while creating good jobs for Canadians. This initiative demonstrates how investing in climate action decreases carbon emissions, reduces energy bills for homeowners, and creates middle-class jobs across the country. “
