Support of Ottawa Low Income Housing Sector

Ontario's Chief Energy Conservation Officer will announce an important new initiative on November 9, 2006 at 11:00 am to support energy conservation in the province's private low income housing sector in Vanier Community Services Centre (290 Dupuis Street, Ottawa).

This pilot program is part of an Ottawa effort to make energy savings a priority for low income homeowners and tenants. It supports a comprehensive package of energy efficiency measures to reduce the overall electricity consumption and demand of low income families. The resulting energy savings will put needed income back into the pockets of those who need it most and address a significant sector in the province's electricity conservation challenge.
