For the past few years, the Canada Greener Homes Loan has been a game-changer for homeowners looking to make energy-efficient upgrades—especially solar. With up to $40,000 in interest-free financing, this federal program has helped thousands of Canadians invest in clean energy without the upfront financial stress. But if you’ve been considering solar, now is the time to act.
Why Now?
According to industry insiders and members of the Charge Solar leadership team—who are actively involved with the Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CANREA) and work closely with program stakeholders—funding is moving quickly and could run out sooner than expected.

Quick Stats (as of June 2025):
Total loan commitments to date: $2.78 billion
Remaining capital: $444.47 million
Loans committed: 115,751
Recent pace: ~3,018 loans/month
CMHC forecasted pace: 3,500 loans/month
Average loan size: $24,000
At this pace, funds could be fully committed within months—and once it’s gone, it’s gone. No waitlist. No warning.
What This Means for Homeowners
This isn’t a moment to panic—but it is a moment to act. The loan is only available to homeowners who complete a pre-retrofit energy assessment and submit all required documentation before funds run out. That process can take several weeks, so starting now gives you the best chance of success.
