Strategic Energy Management for School Board Portfolios Project

Strategic Energy Management for School Board Portfolios Project

Join us to hear the results of the cohort research projects that our Sustainable Schools team conducted in 2022! On December 6, we presented the in-depth analysis of 24 schools, examined causes of large, unexplained energy use increases and savings to develop best practice guidance for operations, maintenance, metering and management practices which can achieve and sustain performance improvements over time. This project is based on analysis done for our 2021 Top Energy Performing School Boards report. As part of that analysis, Sustainable Schools recorded substantial (greater than 20 percent) electricity and natural gas use savings and increases, in 2018/2019 school year vs. 2017/2018, in hundreds of schools across the province.

The presentation is followed by panel discussion with project participants: Brant Haldimand Norfolk Catholic DSB, Conseil scolaire catholique du Nouvel-Ontario, Simcoe County DSB, Toronto DSB.
