Study: Energy recovery or district energy | Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM):

December 31, 2023

Value

Grant: Up to 50% of eligible costs to a maximum of $175,000.

Description

We fund feasibility studies of projects that use recovered or renewable thermal energy in new or existing facilities. This funding helps Canadian cities and communities of all sizes use less energy, which reduces their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improves their air quality.

Eligible Applicants

All Canadian municipal governments; Municipal partners applying in partnership with a municipal government.

Eligible Expenses

Your study may compare several options or assess one option’s ability to reduce GHG emissions by at least 40% by using recovered or renewable thermal energy in new or existing facilities. Your feasibility study should assess the feasibility (e.g., technical, financial) of an initiative as well as its potential environmental, economic and social impacts.

Examples of what you might study:

Thermal energy use, including:

  • Energy generation from waste or landfill gas (does not include incineration)
  • Construction, retrofitting or expansion of district energy systems that use recovered or renewable thermal energy supply
  • Using a low carbon energy source (e.g., residual biomass) to displace fossil fuels in existing district energy systems
  • Combined heat and power, cogeneration or trigeneration systems
