Community energy is an important part of the City’s plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from buildings and help reach its target of net zero emissions by 2050. Buildings are the second largest source of emissions in the City.

One big benefit of community energy systems is that it can provide renewable heating or cooling energy to its entire network. For North Vancouver, this means that over 100 buildings can reduce its greenhouse gas emissions quickly and at a lower cost than if each building had to do it alone.

Lonsdale Energy is working on several renewable and low-carbon projects. By 2027, at least 40% of energy we provide will come from low-carbon technologies.
