Grants and Contributions:

• Development of community-specific GIS platforms that integrate housing energy data to support data-driven energy planning and decision-making, including prioritization of retrofit opportunities based on energy use, costs, and potential GHG emissions reductions. - Improved access to comprehensive home energy information through community energy assessments, home-specific energy labels, and Energy Assessment and Renovation Upgrade Reports for community-owned housing. - Establishment of community-level energy performance tracking, through a community label and the Community Retrofit Ratio, enabling participating Indigenous nations to monitor progress in residential energy efficiency and retrofit implementation. - Increased capacity among representatives and decision-makers from seven participating Indigenous nations, through training and community outreach on energy efficiency and energy management. - Enhanced long-term community energy planning, through modular tools, that support evolving community needs and future expansion.

Grant or contribution awarded and spanning more than one fiscal year.

The objective is to improve energy efficiency in Canada. Canadian energy users in the industrial, residential, commercial/institutional, and transportation sectors must have access to the information and qualified expertise required to make informed choices on energy consumption in the marketplace. Across all of these sectors, products that use energy and affect energy consumption will be a specific focus.
