I am building a net zero ready or net zero home this year and would like to discuss with you what my options are for incentives, rebates and grant I would be able to get to help with the cost of the upgrades.
thanks
Tax credits and other financial incentives for energy efficiency upgrades will vary by city, state and province, so any incentives available to you depnds on where you are. This page below may be a help, but since incentive policies change with every new incoming government - at any level from municipal to federal – it's hard to keep it totally up to date but have a look:

I hope you find something of value there, and if you find any for your region we don’t have listed please let us know in the comments section so we can update it. As for energy efficiency upgrades, you are always best to find out where your investment will get the most bang for your buck, so regardless of any government grants, I would suggest you start with an energy audit, you canread about blower door tests and energy audits for renovation upgrades here. And in case you live in Canada, here are a few other pages that might help –
