Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan
#### Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan
Ontario Regulation 397/11 was created under the Green Energy Act, 2009 and is being phased in over a number of years.
**Phase One**
* The first phase required that Ontario public sector organizations complete a summary template that details the energy consumption, size, age and usage plans of each building they own.
* The Township submitted the first report in July 2013, as required. The report must be updated yearly thereafter."A public agency shall prepare, publish, make available to the public and implement energy conservation and demand plans or joint plans in accordance with sections 6 and 7 of the Act and with this Regulation.
An energy conservation and demand management plan is composed of two parts as follows:
**Phase Two**
* A summary of the public agency's annual energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions for its operations.
* A description of previous, current and proposed measures for conserving and otherwise reducing the amount of energy consumed by the public agency's operations and for managing the public agency's demand for energy, including a forecast of the expected results of current and proposed measures."The plan provides a framework to incorporate various initiatives identified in the plan in future operating and capital budgets.
**2011 Baseline**
Ontario Regulation 397/11 also requires "confirmation that the energy conservation and demand management plan has been approved by the public agency's senior management."
The Township owns and operates more than 4 buildings, 2 buildings are reported twice, as a public works garage and as a municipal office and community hall. For the purposes of this regulation, the DNE/TV Fire Hall located in the Town of Perth is included in this report. Under the provisions of Regulation 397/11, 422 of these require energy and emission monitoring and reporting. In 2011, the Township produced 108,394.93242 KG of GHG emissions.
