The battle against climate change can be powered with small microgrids, using the free energy of nature’s wind, solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, and ocean wave and current systems. 

Canada’s clean energy transition is underway but provinces holding much of the power to instigate change aren’t all pulling their weight, says a new report.

The revenue from the carbon price itself is required by law to be returned to households and businesses through rebates and granting programs.

The prime minister also announced that the federal government will double the carbon price rebate for rural Canadians beginning next April.

Homeowners applying for the federal government’s interest-free loans to make energy-efficient renovations should look into provincial and municipal incentives for extra support, one energy-efficiency expert recommends.

The value of carbon-price rebate cheques from the federal government will jump more than 66 per cent in Ontario and Manitoba this year, to make up for too-small rebates the last two years.

Rebates on carbon taxes haven't helped Canadians warm to them, a new survey suggests.

The federal government owes Canadian families in three provinces more than $200 million after underestimating how much it would raise from the carbon tax during the first year of the program.

A new analysis by Parliament's budget watchdog has found that most households in provinces where the federal carbon tax applies will receive more money back in rebates than they will pay through the scheme — just not as much as projected last year.

Starting today, July 1, 2019, the federal carbon levy will be applied in Yukon and Nunavut, while the Northwest Territories is set to implement its own price on carbon in September.

Federal rebates to encourage Canadians to buy electric cars take effect today, May 1, 2019.

Canada's small business operators say they are not ready for the carbon tax to kick in next week — particularly since the federal government has still not told them how they will be compensated for the cost.
