Premier Ford is gutting green building standards across the province.

Send a message to your MPP now

Buried deep inside Bill 98, Premier Ford’s so-called ‘housing’ bill eliminates the existing green building standards municipalities have had for years.

Tell your MPP that you want the province to stop gutting green building standards.

Helping GTHA homeowners go solar

TAF usually works behind the scenes on clean electrification, and we still are, but we're trying something new. We've just launched Home Solar Accelerator, a new, free concierge-style service that makes it easier than ever for GTHA residents to install home solar and battery storage.

Our expert advisors guide residents through every step:

Helping homeowners understand their options
Comparing quotes from pre‑qualified installers
Supporting homeowners through the solar journey

Why now?

Installing solar and batteries is one of the most effective ways for homeowners to cut carbon and generate value and energy resilience. By helping at least 1,000 residents go solar, the Accelerator will add over 8 megawatts of clean electricity across the region.
