The Canada Greener Homes Grant is an initiative by the Government of Canada that incentivizes Canadians to make their homes more green and energy efficient.

Canada Greener Home Grant: How it works
- Get Your Canada Greener Home Grant Pre-evaluations: Homeowners will get reimbursed for the cost of the pre- and post-retrofit evaluations for up to $600 dollars. To get the grant, both evaluations are required for the reimbursement. To be reimbursed for the pre-retrofit evaluation, you must continue through the entire Greener Homes Grant process while also moving forward with at least one retrofit recommended by your energy advisor.
- Completed Home Retrofits: Get up to total reimbursement of up to $5,000 for energy retrofits. Take advantage of the grant by doing more than one project recommended by your energy advisor. Note that the total maximum Canada Greener Home Grant reimbursement will not exceed $5,000.
