Green Energy and Climate Change Working Group

Home/Municipal Government/Committees and Boards/Green Energy and Climate Change Working Group

The purpose of the Working Group is to provide advice and recommendations to Council by thinking globally and acting locally in reference to our local climate change concerns.  The climate is changing and Tay Valley Township wishes to be part of the solution to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while lowering energy costs and building a local sustainable economy.

To fulfill its mandate, it is anticipated the Working Group will, among other things: 

  • Identify current greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory; 
  • Investigate opportunities for the Township to reduce GHG emissions; 
  • Promote the reduction of GHG emissions while working to lower energy costs; 
  • Support a local sustainable economy through the reduction of GHG emissions; 
  • Identify funding and grant opportunities, including the preparation of grant applications, that may be available to the municipality to implement GHG reduction projects, green energy programs, etc.; 
  • Develop a GHG Emission Reduction Plan; 
  • Identify and prepare for upcoming deadlines for municipal compliance regarding climate change and GHG emission policies, including the Township's Energy Conservation and Demand Management Plan; 
  • Promote community energy initiatives; 
  • Identify and prepare for the impacts and implications of climate change; 
  • Provide advice with respect to energy audits of municipal buildings and fleet.
