2. A description of previous, current and proposed measures for conserving and otherwise reducing the amount of energy consumed by the University`s operations and for managing the public agency’s demand for energy, including a forecast of the expected results of current and proposed measures. O. Reg. 397/11, s. 4 (2).
A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with sustainable building operation and maintenance guidelines and policies:
The CDM2014 Plan is reviewed and updated yearly, calculating GHG emissions for each building each year. To reduce energy on campus, buildings are retrofitted in accordance with the CDM2014 Plan.
