How the Energy as a Service Model Helped Fund Canada’s First Carbon Neutral School
During this webinar, Jim Fonger and John Kononiuk will present a $9.7 million case study in which John Paul II Catholic Secondary School (JP II) in Ontario, Canada, completed the implementation of an energy efficiency project in 2020, aimed at increasing cost savings, lowering emissions and creating an environment more conducive to learning. With the addition of the microgrid’s energy storage system, JP II became Canada’s first carbon neutral school.
Maxime Saint-Denis, from the Real Property Services Branch at Public Services and Procurement Canada, will moderate the session to show how the energy as a service concept is relevant in a Federal context to help advance the implementation of the Greening of Government Strategy.
