SuMo - Municipal Energy Use

Tactical indicator

Energy efficiency is a key component of decarbonization, as it reduces overall electricity load at the site and on the electricity grid and reduces operating costs. The City intends to lead by example by decarbonizing its over 400 existing municipal facilities and has adopted a goal to achieve zero emissions municipal buildings and operations by 2035.

The Zero Emissions Municipal Buildings & Operations Policy (ZEMBOP) provides an implementation framework to help us improve energy efficiency at municipal facilities. As older energy-using systems fail, they will be replaced with more efficient systems.

This indicator displays the total amount of energy used at municipal facilities (in red) annually. The yellow and blue markers denote how much of the total energy annually used was derived from natural gas or grid electricity.
