Housing Price Wars: Will an Energy Efficient Home Win?

Housing Price Wars: Will an Energy Efficient Home Win?

Season 1 Episode 113 Published 4 years, 10 months ago
Description

Housing prices in Canada are heating up again, and so are carbon taxes. In a price war, home energy efficiency may not be top-of-mind for buyers, but with rising carbon taxes maybe it should be.

This week Jackie and Peter talk energy efficiency, including: How important is energy efficiency for achieving a low carbon future? What are the government incentives for energy efficiency?  Will higher carbon taxes reduce the historic barriers for investing in energy efficiency? What is a heat pump?  Are new business opportunities emerging for deploying efficiency?

See Peter’s recent commentary “Location, Location, Inefficiency.”
