Partnership with Infrastructure Ontario
January 19, 2017
Infrastructure Ontario (IO) and the IESO have struck a strategic, five-year partnership to test innovative processes, technologies and program delivery models to accelerate the adoption of conservation and demand management (CDM) solutions by Ontario’s broader public sector.
Through this agreement under the Conservation Fund, the IESO will support the testing of new CDM projects across IO’s diverse portfolio. IO’s portfolio features approximately 4,000 buildings and structures across the province that support a wide-range of ministry programs. This includes multi-ministry office buildings, courthouses and correctional facilities.
Selected projects will focus on areas including energy efficiency, operational performance and opportunities to work toward “net zero” buildings, meaning the total amount of energy used by the building is roughly equal to the amount of renewable energy created on the site.
