5.3 Strata Energy Advisor Pilot Program Jason Emmert Conor Reynolds AIR QUALITY PLANNER PROGRAM MANAGER AIR QUALITY & CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY Climate Action Committee September 20, 2017 23317370 Climate Action Committee - Page 1
Stratas in Metro Vancouver ~7,200 Strata Corporations Climate Action Committee - Page 2
Opportunities to Reduce Emissions Every year 4-11% of stratas in the region undertake a major project that affects the energy use and GHG emissions of the building Climate Action Committee - Page 3
Example GHG Reduction Projects - High efficiency boiler replacements - Energy efficient windows - More insulation (walls and roofs) - Fireplace timers - Building tune-ups (e.g. control systems, set-points, pipe insulation) - High efficiency make-up air units (e.g. hybrid heat pumps) Climate Action Committee - Page 4
Background Study Barriers to Strata Action? - Complexity of decision-making - Stratas are skeptical of contractors and consultants - Low upfront costs preferred over long term savings Cultural and decision making barriers Climate Action Committee - Page 5
