Home Renovation Savings Program
Unlock Big Savings with Ontario's New Home Renovation Program: Receive up to $10,000 in Rebates!
Ontario homeowners can take advantage of the exciting Home Renovation Savings Program, launched January 28, 2025. This new initiative, supported by Ontario Energy Rebates and Enbridge Gas, offers unparalleled opportunities to save money while making energy-efficient upgrades to your home. Whether you’re looking to reduce energy bills, improve comfort, or enhance sustainability, this program is designed to meet your needs.
The Home Renovation Savings Program is part of Ontario’s comprehensive push for energy efficiency and sustainability. Under this program, homeowners can receive rebates of up to 30% for qualifying energy-efficient upgrades. With funding from Ontario Rebates and the Affordable Energy Act (effective December 4, 2024), the program now caters to a wider range of households, including those using propane, oil, electricity, or natural gas for heating.
Partner Rebates: HER+ and New Enbridge Gas Rebate
Ontario homeowners can also combine the Home Renovation Savings Program with the Home Efficiency Rebate Plus (HER+) Program, which offers up to $10,000 in rebates, plus an additional $600 rebate for Enbridge Gas customers to cover evaluation costs. These programs complement each other, allowing you to maximize your energy savings.
