City of Toronto integrated and renewable energy perspective

The city of Toronto energy perspective currently includes as part of its focus particular efforts with respect to energy efficiency and related standards; integrated energy as a concept crucial to waterfront revitalization; potential cogeneration opportunities related to sewage treatment plant and landfill operations; working with other agencies groups and city decisions to establish wind turbines on the waterfront; and an emerging cooperation with the private sector to investigate local applications for stationary fuel cells. A current concern for the city is the potential impact of Ontario electricity re-regulation on energy efficiency initiatives and demand side management, and alternative energy source.
