Solar Energy and Grant Programs-Canada Grant for Green plus Homes

The Canada Grant for Green plus Homes program mentioned plus stockings is plus in effect. However, the Canadian Loan for Green plus Homes is still in effect. This is interest-free financing of up to 40,000, repayable over 10 years. The loan is also administered by Réno-climat in Quebec and the admission criteria are the same as for the subsidy.

So you need to apply BEFORE you start the work.

Are you a home owner and looking to reduce your reliance on propane, the generator, or simply reduce your electricity bill?

Whatever the reason, if you want to gain autonomy, whether by adding panels to a solar energy generation system already in place or starting from scratch, you may be interested in the Canada Green plus Home Grant.

In place since May 2021, Quebec owners can apply to Rénoclimat to analyze their project and obtain up to $5,000 to install solar panels on his residence. There is also a $1,000 available for those who would like to acquire a bench of battery that would act as a back-up system.

To benefit from the subsidy on renewable energy systems, a number of criteria must be met, including:

• Apply BEFORE starting work

If the work has already started or even completed, the chances are great that your application will be refused. The grant is not retroactive.

• The residence must be the principal of the owner and he must have lived in him for 6 months.

• The installed system must have a production capacity equal to or greater than 1.0 kW. You will receive $1000 per kW.

• System can be off or on network

In the cas that you want a network system, you will need to complete an application with your supplier to be able to connect.

In this regard, Hydro-Québec offers a net measurement program that allows you to connect to the grid and obtain credits on your energy production.

If this is something that interests you, you can discuss it with a member of our team and we will be pleased to accompany you in your request. We will make sure that we give you the necessary documents to complete the application.

To benefit from the batteries grant:

• The batteries must be connected to a photovoltaic production system (solar energy system) permanently.
