Programs available in Ontario
Canada Greener Homes Loan
An interest-free loan of $5,000 to $40,000, repayable over 10 years, for major home energy retrofits — heat pumps, windows and doors, insulation, solar panels and more. Unlike the Greener Homes Grant (closed to new applicants in January 2026), the Loan is still open.
Canada Greener Homes Grant (closed)
The federal grant of up to $5,000 for home retrofits ($5,600 with the evaluation reimbursement) closed to new applicants in January 2026. Homeowners already in the program can complete their retrofits. New applicants should look at the Greener Homes Loan, the Affordability Program (low-income), and provincial programs.
Oil to Heat Pump Affordability Program (OHPA)
Federal support of up to $10,000 (up to $15,000 in co-delivery provinces) to switch a home heated with oil to a cold-climate electric heat pump. Aimed at low- and median-income households currently heating with oil.
Home Renovation Savings Program (Ontario)
Ontario's main home-energy rebate program (launched January 2025, replacing HER+), delivered by Enbridge Gas and Save on Energy. Heat pump rebates up to $7,500 for non-gas homes, up to $12,000 for geothermal, plus insulation, windows and smart thermostat rebates. Currently funded through November 30, 2026.
Canada Greener Homes Affordability Program
The federal program for low- to median-income households: free energy retrofits (insulation, draft-proofing, and in many cases heat pumps) delivered at no cost, co-delivered with provinces. Rolling out province by province — availability and measures vary by region.
