I thought I would pass along some information regarding grants available to you by making your home more eco-Friendly.

Example: For each energy star window installed? you can get $30 from the Federal government and $30 from Provincial government. For 10 windows, that would be $600.00. It costs approximately $300-$350 for the first visit? you get $150 back from provincial government and then $150 for the return visit after the work is done. You could get more money by following their other minor recommendations like insulating or caulking etc.

An expanded coENERGY Retrofit- Homes program was announced in Budget 2009 and Natural Resources Canada is working to finalize the details. The new expanded program includes a $300 million increase over 2 years for support to property owners looking to make their homes more energy efficient. It is estimated that additional funds will extend the reach of the current program to an additional 200,000 homeowners.
The Government of Canada is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving the energy efficiency of our homes. In these economic times, it?s especially important that we take steps like this to help Canadians control their energy costs while generating new jobs. This builds on the success of this initiative that has helped over 52,500 Canadian homeowners to complete home retrofits.
Natural Resources Canada will be providing the new program details at a later date.
We encourage you to continue to check back to the web site for updates.
