The purpose of the Green Ontario Fund is to reduce greenhouse gas pollution in buildings and industry in order to meet Ontario's emission reduction targets.

The new rebates will apply to:

Up to $7,200 off new insulation and a $100 rebate for air sealing
Up to $20,000 for the installation of ENERGY STAR certified ground source heat pumps (home geothermal) or up to $4,500 to repair existing heat pump systems
