Energy Management Plan

Conservation is a key part of the province's effort to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and build a clean, reliable, modern energy system. As a result, public agencies are now required to:

• Report their annual energy use and GHG emissions to the Ministry of Energy as of July 1, 2013
• Develop five-year energy conservation and demand management (CDM) plans by July 1, 2014

Energy reporting and conservation planning will help us:

• manage electricity use and costs;
• identify best practices and energy-saving opportunities;
• evaluate results by comparing to similar facilities across the province;
• assist in setting goals by providing a benchmark; and
• measure improvement over time

The Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan will outline:

• conservation goals and objectives;
• proposed conservation measures;
• estimated costs and benefits; and
• any renewable energy installations

Energy Conservation & Demand Management Plans

Regulation 397/11 requires public agencies to prepare, publish, make available to the public and implement energy conservation and demand management plans.
