Value

Partial premium refund of 25% if you’re CMHC insured and have an energy efficient home.

Description

CMHC Eco Plus supports CMHC’s commitment to reducing the impact of housing on climate change and the Government of Canada’s plan to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. As energy efficiency standards improve, so will the criteria for the Eco Plus program. It will include more certifications and continue to align with Natural Resources Canada’s EnerGuide rating system.

Eligible Applicants

To qualify, your home must meet the eligible building standards and/or the EnerGuide and EnerGuide GJ ratings.

CMHC is introducing new eligibility criteria including an updated and expanded list of energy efficiency certifications, and energy efficiency targets based not only on total Energy Consumption but also Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG).

Recognizing that, as Canadian building codes progress toward net-zero ready standards, and energy efficiency building standards evolve toward this target, the eligibility criteria may be periodically adjusted.

Eligible Expenses

If your home meets the energy efficiency requirements and you have CMHC mortgage loan insurance, you can apply for the Eco Plus refund. Make sure you have the following documentation:

  • final certificate from the list of eligible third-party certifications and/or
  • EnerGuide label or EnerGuide Renovation Upgrade Report (RUR) for existing homes

Deadline Date

Your application must be submitted within 24 months (2 years) of the closing date of your mortgage.
