Energy & Clean Climate

Keep your home warm, your wallet happy – and our environment healthier

Clean helps people save money and improve the environment by making smart energy choices; sometimes all it takes are small changes at an individual level to generate a positive impact on a large scale. And through HomeWarming, we want to help low-income Nova Scotians who use electric heat lower their bills through free home improvements.

Through all our energy efficiency work over the years, Clean has helped reduce energy use in Nova Scotia by over 165 gigawatt hours (GWh) so far. To help put that number in perspective, it’s equivalent to removing the annual energy consumption of over 15,200 homes* from Nova Scotia’s electricity grid.

And it’s more than 112,000 metric tonnes of greenhouse gases not released into our atmosphere. * Based on an average NS household annual energy usage of 10,833 kilowatt hours (kWh).

In addition to the programs detailed below, we encourage you to visit EnergyAssist, an easy way to learn about many free programs available in Nova Scotia to help you save money on heating and energy.
