Solarthermalworld.org:  Solar air heating is the main application for the solar thermal industry in Canada. 88% of newly installed collector area in 2023 was glazed and unglazed air collectors. This market segment grew by 35% compared to 2022 because of support policies in the eastern Canadian province of Quebec. The fact that residential solar water heaters are not eligible technologies within the national Greener Homes Grant Program makes it hard to sell them to homeowners. This share of the overall market is correspondingly small (3%). The solar thermal industry sees solar process heat, solar district heating and solar assisted heat pumps as the applications with the best growth potential in Canada. These are some of the findings of the most current survey of the Canadian Solar Thermal Market Development 2022 and 2023.
