Durham Greener Homes Program

Durham Greener Homes, a Regional Municipality of Durham initiative managed by Windfall Ecology Centre, assists homeowners in overcoming energy retrofit challenges by offering support throughout the process. The program stems from the Region's commitment to promoting sustainable communities through a widespread shift to energy-efficient homes in alignment with its Durham Community Energy Plan.

Durham Greener Homes addresses the impact of climate change in Canada, aligning with the region's commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Launched as part of Durham's climate emergency declaration, the program supports homeowners in the region with deep energy retrofits, aligning with the Durham Community Energy Plan's goal for 200,000 homes by 2050. By collaborating with experts and local institutions, Durham Greener Homes aims to simplify the retrofit process, creating immediate benefits like job opportunities, lower energy consumption, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions, leading to resilient homes and a sustainable environment.
