About CCET
The Centre for Community Energy Transformation (CCET) is a not-for-profit organization created through the collaboration of the City of Brampton, Town of Caledon, City of Mississauga and Region of Peel.
CCET’s mandate is to speed up a community transition towards a low-carbon future by helping to advance:
- Deep home energy retrofits
- District energy
- Institutional, Commercial and Industry (ICI) energy efficiency
- Climate education and outreach
Home Energy Retrofit Program
In 2023, the City, in collaboration with the City of Brampton and the Town of Caledon, completed a feasibility study evaluating design options for a potential home energy retrofit program. This program would help homeowners pursue energy retrofits by:
- Providing information on ways to improve energy efficiency
- Helping to explore financing options, such as grants to help pay for energy retrofits
- Sharing information on existing grant and rebate programs available through other entities such as utilities and regional, provincial, or federal governments
- Helping to navigate the retrofit process through an online platform
The regional approach of including all three municipalities creates synergies that save time and money. The City and its partners will continue to explore the next steps for financing mechanisms.
Support available now
CCET has launched the following initiatives to help homeowners.
