Funding opportunities
The closure of intake of new applications to the Canada Greener Homes Grant does not affect other Canada Greener Homes Initiatives, including the Oil to Heat Pump Affordability program, and the Canada Greener Homes Loan. Applications will continue to be accepted to these programs.
The Canada Greener Homes Loan is still available to help Canadians in making their homes more energy efficient and comfortable. It offers up to $40,000 in interest-free financing to homeowners at the pre-retrofit stage. Loan eligibility will continue to be based on the established eligibility criteria.

How it works
Unsolicited phone calls or door-to-door visits—Remain vigilant!
NRCan has not approved any third parties to make unsolicited contact with homeowners to register for or participate in the Canada Greener Homes Grant. The Government of Canada, NRCan and its family of brands (ENERGY STAR, EnerGuide) never solicit over the telephone, or by email or go door-to-door asking to enter Canadians’ homes to inspect, sell, or rent heating and cooling products. EnerGuide home energy evaluations are performed by licensed service organizations only at the request of homeowners. Learn how to recognize energy scams.
Resources for existing applicants
Need a loan for your retrofit?
The Canada Greener Homes Loan offers interest-free loans of up to $40,000 to help Canadians make their homes more energy efficient and comfortable. Homeowners are required to complete a pre-retrofit EnerGuide evaluation to participate in the program. Only retrofits that are recommended by an energy advisor and that have not yet been started are eligible.
