2022 Energy Efficiency Report Released by Save on Energy

December 21, 2023

Save on Energy programs have exceeded energy savings targets at the mid-point of the IESO’s 2021-2024 Conservation and Demand Management Framework. Over 2021 and 2022, programs resulted in 1,124 GWh of actual and committed net energy savings (8 per cent above target); and 173 MW of net peak demand savings (10 per cent above target).

Thanks to program participants taking part in 41,825 business and residential projects, 7,410 tonnes of annual greenhouse gas emissions were avoided, which is equivalent to removing 1,610 gas-powered cars from the road.
