Financial Benefits of Green Infrastructure Investment

The CNLA partnered with an MBA team from Wilfred Laurier University to conduct a study analyzing the "Financial Benefits of Green Infrastructure Investment."

The group examined various types of green infrastructure investments in Canada to demonstrate its economic value and, therefore, provide services for the community.

The team developed a business model for various types of green infrastructure investments for different areas of Canada. The target measures include stormwater management, energy savings, air quality, mental health, longevity, commercial property tax, residential property tax, commercial property income tax and health care.
