Manitoba Builds Green

The report 'Manitoba Builds Green' explores the potential for scaling a deep energy retrofit (DER) industry in Manitoba to decarbonize the building sector, create sustainable employment, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

• Buildings account for approximately 17% of provincial emissions in Manitoba, Canada. Implementing deep energy retrofits can lower home energy costs, grow green industries, and mitigate peak demand impacts on the electricity grid.
• To achieve net-zero emissions in Manitoba's building sector by 2050, 200,000 homes must be retrofitted, which would necessitate an annual investment of approximately CAD 1.2 billion.
• The report advocates for a publicly led, well-funded neighbourhood-level retrofit program combined with an industrial and workforce development strategy to foster a just transition and establish Manitoba as a leader in low-carbon buildings.
