正文(英文) | October 23, 2018 - Ottawa, Ontario - Natural Resources Canada Energy efficiency cannot be seen at a glance, but we feel its benefits in our homes, neighbourhoods, environment, economy and wallets. Federal investments in innovative energy-efficient projects and programs drive economic growth, contribute to our clean energy future and create high-quality jobs for Canadians. Canada’s Minister of Natural Resources, the Honourable Amarjeet Sohi, today announced that ENERGY STAR® certification is available for Ontario’s new mid- and high-rise residential buildings for the first time, a designation that reduces energy consumption and costs while creating good middle-class jobs for Canada’s clean energy future. The announcement comes on the third annual ENERGY STAR Day in Canada, which raises awareness of the important role that energy efficiency plays in helping Canadians combat climate change and celebrates the great strides our participants, stakeholders and citizens have made together in saving energy. In collaboration with EnerQuality and the home building industry, the ENERGY STAR Multifamily High-Rise (New Construction) Pilot Program will help builders adopt energy-efficient practices when constructing new mid- and high-rise buildings in Ontario. The program will create jobs in the areas of skilled construction, consulting and design. The five-year pilot program will recognize buildings that are designed 15 percent more energy-efficient than those built to the provincial building code, along with other program requirements. The buildings will be registered with the ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager benchmarking tool to monitor and manage energy performance. For builders and building owners, certification means lower operating costs, increased rental value and occupancy rates, and greater engagement with clients and their communities. For homeowners and tenants, it means superior energy performance and lower energy costs. Through Canada’s national energy dialogue, Generation Energy, Canadians made it clear that clean energy solutions are not a luxury but a necessity for Canada’s low-carbon future. Canada will continue to support clean energy projects that create jobs, support investment and industry competitiveness, advance our clean future and help realize our global climate change goals.
