## **About the Canadian Greener Home Grant **

The scientific consensus is clear on the origin of climate change, whose effects
on human life are already visible. In response to this challenge, the Canadian government
has developed the Canadian Green Home Grant program, pledging an investment of nearly
$2.6 billion over the next seven years.

The Canadian grant is designed to encourage households to undertake energy-efficient
renovations and home upgrades such as :   

 * Replace an oil furnace with a high-efficiency one or **a heat pump**;
 * Replace air-permeable doors and windows;
 * Improve wall, basement or roof insulation;
 * Install a high efficiency water heater;
 * Install solar panels.

In concrete terms, it allows you to access : 

 * Financial assistance of up to $5,000 for ecological renovations; 
 * An evaluation **[EnerGuide](https://buildingexpert.ca/efficiency/energuide/)**;
 * And expert advice on planning renovations.
