Efficiency Funding Announced For Local Homes

More than 200 public housing units in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality are getting provincial and federal money for energy efficiency improvements.

Both levels of government are each kicking in $4 million for the project. 

It includes installing insulation, air-sealing systems and efficient water heaters, as well as converting oil-fueled heating systems to electric heat pumps.

The federal money is through the Green Infrastructure Stream of the Investing in Canada infrastructure program.
