Energy Management

Beginning in 2011, Ontario Regulation 397/11 (now replaced with O. Reg 507/18), requires all agencies in the Broader Public Sector to prepare a five-year Energy Conservation and Demand Management (ECDM) Plan.

The Township’s objectives of the ECDM Plan are to achieve the following:

1. Energy consumption will be closely monitored and efficiently utilized by managers in their respective departments on an ongoing basis
2. A corporate culture of conservation will be promoted amongst all Township staff
3. The impact to energy consumption and to greenhouse gas emissions will be considered during budgetary, procurement, planning, and corporate policy decisions
4. The Township meets and exceeds the requirements of Ontario Regulation 507/18

The Township is currently developing the Township of North Dumfries’ 2019 – 2024 ECDM plan which is required to be updated every five (5) years and published by July 1, 2019.

See the Draft 2019 5-Year Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan
