Canada Greener Homes Grant: Now Canadians Get Up to $5,000 Off Solar

Jonathan Bince • Feb 26, 2023

It's time to get off the couch to get the $5,000 Off Solar


The Canada Greener Homes Grant is a fantastic initiative by the Government of Canada to encourage Canadian homeowners to make their homes more green and energy efficient. With this program, you can receive up to $5,000 off on approved energy-efficient home retrofits, including the installation of solar panels. This means that switching to solar power for your home is now more affordable than ever before!


To get started with the Canada Greener Homes Grant, homeowners must first get reimbursed for the cost of the pre- and post-retrofit evaluations, up to $600 dollars. The total reimbursement for energy retrofits can be up to $5,000, so it's a great opportunity to take advantage of the grant by doing more than one project recommended by your energy advisor. If you're interested in installing solar panels, you can receive up to $1,000 per kWh and up to $5,000 dollars for installing solar panels for your residential home.


It's important to note that all equipment must be purchased in Canada, including online purchases from Canadian online distributors. The solar panels and inverters must be certified under CSA Standards, and the rated solar panel must have a peak power capacity higher or equal to 1.0kW. Additionally, the Canada Greener Homes Grant is also giving up to $1,000 in incentives for batteries connected to solar panel systems for your home. Batteries must be combined with an energy efficiency retrofit from the Canadian Greener Homes Grants initiative, such as solar panel installations, in order to qualify.
