New residential energy retrofit financing program for Leduc, Alberta

We are thrilled for the City of Leduc! The Clean Energy Improvement Program will enable its residential property owners to finance up to 100 percent of eligible energy efficiency or renewable energy upgrades. As program administrator, Alberta Municipalities looks forward to working with the City to provide excellent customer service and supporting homeowners through the application process.

Thank you to the Government of Canada and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities for this meaningful opportunity. This investment empowers us to advance the City’s goals of protecting the environment and contributing to the local economy. We are grateful to have the chance to bring such an innovative program to the City of Leduc. The Clean Energy Improvement Program opens doors for our residents to explore energy-efficient upgrades they might not have otherwise considered. We look forward to working with Alberta Municipalities to deliver the program to homeowners.

Municipalities are on the front lines of climate change and climate action, and communities of all sizes are showing climate leadership at a time when we need it most. The Green Municipal Fund empowers them to get results on the ground. We deliver results with our federal partners – supporting cities and communities like Leduc build a greener, more sustainable community, creating jobs and helping Canadians make their homes more comfortable and affordable. Together, we are on the path to net-zero.

By investing in energy-efficient housing, we are building healthy and sustainable communities. Canada’s ongoing transition to a low-carbon economy requires innovative housing solutions that create jobs and climate resilience while making life more affordable through saved energy costs.

With 18% of emissions coming from our buildings, upgrading and renovating our homes to be more energy-efficient will help us achieve our climate targets while also saving Canadians money on energy costs and creating good, sustainable jobs in our communities. Our government is pleased to help people in Leduc and across Canada to identify and capitalize on ways to cut pollution in their neighbourhoods.
