Funding and Financing Programs: Major Retrofits
-
To become a net-metered customer – and before you buy or install a renewable energy system – you need to apply to connect your energy source to the electricity grid.
In some parts of the province, you may not be able to connect to a renewable energy system due to technical limitations of the local distribution system.
-
Low-income households (less than $104,000); house must be sole residence valued at less than $468,243; maximum asset value $200,000.
-
Through net metering, you can save money by generating power with renewable energy, like wind or solar.
-
Up to $10,000

Homes that have already started work on the upgrades before they conduct their pre-retrofit energy assessment.

Enbridge Gas and the Canada's Greener Homes Grant have partnered to provide rebates towards eligible retrofits such as home insulation, windows and doors, heat pumps and renewable energy systems. Participants can also offset the cost of their EnerGuide home evaluation (home energy audit) with an additional rebate of $600.
