Green Municipal Fund – Study: Retrofit pathway for municipal buildings | Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM):

none

Value

Grant for up to 50%* of eligible costs. Up to a maximum of $65,000 for a single building, up to $200,000 for multiple buildings.

Description

We fund feasibility studies that assess in detail the approaches needed to retrofit existing municipal buildings for an impactful multi-year pathway toward zero-operational GHGs. This offer is applicable to any existing municipal building.

Your study should identify a sequence of retrofit measures to reduce emissions from your municipal building by at least 50 percent within 10 years and achieve best practice energy targets within 20 years. Studies should consider your unique objectives and constraints (eg., building use, capital budgets, equipment renewal cycles, etc.) and explore multiple optimization scenarios.

  • Canadian municipal governments (e.g., towns, cities, regions, districts, and local boards).
  • Municipal partners, which include:
    • private sector entities
    • municipally-owned corporations
    • regional, provincial or territorial organizations delivering municipal services
    • non-governmental organizations
    • not-for-profit organizations
    • research institutes (e.g., universities)
  • An Indigenous community is an eligible lead applicant if they are partnering with a Canadian municipal government on an eligible project, or if they have a shared service agreement with a Canadian municipal government related to municipal infrastructure, climate change or adaptation.

Eligible Expenses

This offer funds retrofits of municipal buildings and new builds of municipal and community buildings. See our Community Buildings Retrofit initiative for more details on retrofitting community buildings.
