A brief description of the institution’s GHG emissions reduction initiatives:
HEC's GHG emission were significantly reduced because of two main events. First, important retro commissioning initiatives were implement in main buildings to reduce GHG emission from natural gas consumption (domestic water boiler conversion, heat reclaim, building automation system upgrades, LED conversion, etc.).
Second, provincial electricity producer Hydro-Québec GHG emission per KWh were significantly reduced from the baseline period until today because of the commissioning of new hydro-electricity power plant. By doing so, it does not need anymore to rely on gas or oil powered generator during peak period, making Québec’s grid electricity’s GHG footprint extremely low (0.6 kg CO2e/MWh in 2017). These two factor combined made HEC GHG emission reduction rate very good.
