The Department of Natural Resources and Renewables is investing another $57 million to expand energy efficiency programming for homes and businesses across the province.

“Nova Scotia is transitioning to a clean, more renewable energy future,” said Tory Rushton, Minister of Natural Resources and Renewables. “We know that upgrading buildings to become more energy efficient reduces energy bills and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. We’re pleased to expand our investment.”

The majority of the funding, $50 million, will be focused on residential energy efficiency programs to address energy poverty and equity. The remaining $7 million is for energy efficiency programming for businesses.

The Department will work with partner organizations to finalize program details. More information will be shared in the new year.
