Over the next year we will:

  • Develop and submit to EECA an energy efficiency implementation plan, as required by our Energy Management Agreement with EECA, with the following components:
    • Audit energy use of all Ministry offices
    • Develop an Energy Management Plan with annual numerical targets for energy use
    • Update of the Energy Management Agreement as outlined in that agreement
    • Implement a system to monitor and report energy use
    • Report to EECA annually on performance
    • Implement a staff energy efficiency awareness and education programme
    • Identify and implement practical and highly cost-effective energy efficiency opportunities or upgrades within 12 months of them being identified
    • Ensure all future office upgrades and specifications for new premises meet minimum standards for energy efficiency
  • Promote the energy efficiency awareness and education programme to staff.
