GRANT PROGRAM
FREE LUNCH & LEARN WEBINAR
WED., DEC. 15, 12:00-1:00 PM
Ontario Sustainable Energy Association is proud to present a one hour lunch & learn webinar about the new Canada Greener Homes grant program.
Come hear the leaders implementing this major new sustainable energy initiative. This special event is co-sponsored by the Canadian Association of Consulting Energy Advisors and Natural Resources Canada.
An estimated 40% of Canada's GHG emissions are generated by buildings, with a significant portion of these emissions being produced by heating our homes and the hot water we use.
The Canada Greener Homes Grant Program is a $2.4 billion, 7 year initiative led by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan).
This program will provide 7,000 Canadian homeowners $5,000 grants to invest in energy retrofits designed to reduce GHG emissions and make homes more energy and cost efficient.
The program also provides homeowners $600 grants for the mandatory applicant home energy audits performed by trained Energy Advisors.
