    Rénoclimat (Québec)

    Québec grants for home energy retrofits, paid after pre- and post-retrofit energy evaluations document the improvements.

    Available Amount

    Up to $20,000 per homeowner; up to $40,000 for duplex, triplex, or multi-unit residential buildings (per the official Rénoclimat Participant's Guide)

    Start Date

    Not published

    End Date

    Ongoing

    Eligibility

    Québec homeowners (single-family, duplex, triplex, multi-unit residential)

    Eligible Upgrades & Scope

    Residential

    Eligibility & requirements. Rénoclimat is open to homeowners in Québec, including owners of single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, and multi-unit residential buildings. Participation requires a pre-retrofit energy evaluation (cost: $150 plus taxes) and a free post-retrofit evaluation by an authorized energy advisor. Retrofits must be completed after the pre-retrofit evaluation to qualify.

    What you get. Grants of up to $20,000 per homeowner are available, rising to $40,000 for duplex, triplex, or multi-unit residential buildings, according to the official Rénoclimat Participant's Guide. Eligible measures include insulation, air sealing, window and door replacement, and heating system upgrades. Grant amounts scale with the energy performance improvement documented between the two evaluations.

    Deadlines. No fixed end date is published. Homeowners must complete retrofits and the post-retrofit evaluation within the program's stated timelines after registering.

    How it works. The homeowner registers, pays for the pre-retrofit evaluation, receives a report recommending upgrades, completes the work, then receives the free post-retrofit evaluation. The grant is calculated from the measured improvement and paid after the file is approved.

    Important notes. Work done before the pre-retrofit evaluation does not qualify. Rénoclimat can often be combined with Hydro-Québec's LogisVert incentives for different measures, but the same measure generally cannot be subsidized twice. Confirm stacking rules on the official pages.

    Program details change — verify current rules on the official program page before applying.
