Retrofits: an ideal mechanism for stimulus • Multiple objectives: housing, health, poverty reduction • In all communities • Labour intensive (8–27 jobs/$M) • Uses local products
Project partners
Future-ready retrofits are: • Low-carbon: use renewable energy and carbon smart materials • Healthy: cleaner air, improved comfort • Resilient: ready for extreme weather and earthquakes • Grid-interactive: integrate demand response, storage, generation, EV- charging
GHG Light Moderate Deep reduction 10-20% 30-50% 40-80% GHG reduction GHG reduction GHG reduction Retrocommissioning Fixture replacements Weatherization Lighting upgrades Examples of building retro � t measures Controls Furnace upgrades LOW-CARBON Heat pumps RESILIENCE Envelope upgrades Ventilation w/ heat recovery Public Climate adaptation measures health Seismic upgrades Pathogen control measures

Reducing Emissions in Existing Residential Buildings Ian McVey, Manager of Sustainability, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer August 26, 2020
Brief Introduction to Durham Region durham.ca 2
Durham’s Community Energy Plan ‐ Low Carbon Pathway The most cost effective emissions reductions are found in the transportation sector, followed by the residential sector durham.ca 3
Priority Implementation Programs 3. 1. Durham 2. Deep 5. 6. Co ‐ Renewable Green Retrofit 4. EV JV Community ordinated Energy Co ‐ Standard Program Mobilization Land ‐ use op durham.ca 4
Program Plan at a glance • $3.5M FCM funding application submitted in July 2020; response expected in Nov 2020. Key design elements include: o Voluntary public ‐ private partnership, focused on natural gas conservation o Geared to owners of single family homes built between 1970 and 2000 , represents ~ 46% of Durham’s housing stock o Planning for an initial 4 ‐ year program, from 2021 to 2024 o Targeting participation of ~ 1,000 homes durham.ca 5
