Waste
Pilot project: Waste stream management
A pilot project that adresses a particular type of item (e.g., diapers, polystyrene, gypsum), improves its waste stream diversion rate (by weight or volume) and offers other environmental benefits.
Grant: Up to $500,000 to cover up to 50% of eligible costs
Municipalities and municipal partners with a population of 20,000 or under may qualify for a grant of up to 80 per cent of eligible project costs under certain conditions. Contact us to find out if your municipality is eligible.
Waste
Capital project: Waste stream management
A capital project that adresses a particular type of item (e.g., diapers, polystyrene, gypsum), improves its waste stream diversion rate (by weight or volume) and offers other environmental benefits.
Regular loans and grants: Receive a low-interest loan of up to $5 million and a grant worth up to 15% of the loan; cover up to 80% of your eligible costs.
High-ranking project loans and grants: These qualify for a low-interest loan of up to $10 million and a grant worth up to 15% of the loan; cover up to 80% of your eligible costs.
Energy
Pilot project: Retrofit of municipal facilities
A pilot project of retrofits that must have the potential to reduce a building’s energy use by at least 30%. A minimum of 20% must come from energy efficiency and a maximum of 10% can come from on-site, renewable energy. The 10% maximum does not apply to geothermal exchange systems. Retrofit changes must meet or exceed the national and provincial building codes (NECB 2011 or provincial derivatives).
Grant: Up to $500,000 to cover up to 50% of eligible costs
Municipalities and municipal partners with a population of 20,000 or under may qualify for a grant of up to 80 per cent of eligible project costs under certain conditions. Contact us to find out if your municipality is eligible.
Energy
Study: Retrofit of municipal facilities
A feasibility study of retrofits that must have the potential to reduce a building’s energy use by at least 30%. A minimum of 20% must come from energy efficiency and a maximum of 10% can come from on-site, renewable energy. The 10% maximum does not apply to geothermal exchange systems. Retrofit changes must meet or exceed the national and provincial building codes (NECB 2011 or provincial derivatives).
Grant: Up to 50% of eligible costs to a maximum of $175,000

Capital project: New construction of energy-efficient facilities
A capital project for an initiative that aims for net zero energy performance. That means any energy it requires should be generated through on-site, renewable or recovered power sources.
Regular loans and grants: Receive a low-interest loan of up to $5 million and a grant worth up to 15% of the loan; cover up to 80% of your eligible costs.
