Home Energy Rebates - Green Communities Canada

Home Energy Rebates

We are here to help you navigate retrofit incentive programs.

Our EnerGuide Energy Advisors can assess the unique situation of your home. We can help you identify the most cost-effective sequence for your retrofit plan, and find incentive programs you may qualify for.

Retrofitting your home can help reduce energy use by as much as 50 per cent or even more. It’s not just about reducing your bills. Retrofitting can also improve all-season comfort and resilience during extreme weather events. It’s about making your home more comfortable, more cost effective, and healthier, for you and the planet.
