Now might be a good time to improve your home’s energy efficiency

The provincial government is introducing two new programs to save energy, and money. 

The Home Renovation Savings Program, which begins January 28th, will give homeowners a rebate of up to 30 percent on energy improvements. 

Those will include new windows, doors, and insulation, as well as air sealing, smart thermostats, heat pumps, and rooftop solar systems. 

The province is also extending its Peak Perks program to small businesses. 

The incentives are similar to those the Ford government cancelled upon taking office in 2018. 

Energy Minister Stephen Lecce says this is different however, because more homeowners will qualify, and the new program has a longer commitment period.
