Appointment scheduling for energy evaluations
For energy evaluation requests, we currently offer:
- Post-retrofit energy evaluations for participants eligible for the Canada Greener Homes Grant;
- Post-retrofit energy evaluations for Canada Greener Homes Loan recipients whose loan completion deadline expires before April 1, 2025.
For other services, an energy evaluation can be scheduled at a convenient date after April 1, 2025.
Some types of energy evaluations must be postponed in order to stay within the budget allocated by the Gouvernement du Québec to the Rénoclimat program.
If you choose to obtain an energy evaluation outside the Rénoclimat program, the Ministère will be unable to provide you with financial assistance for your renovations. You will also be responsible for covering the full cost of the energy evaluation services.
