Energy efficiency is a responsible way for residents building owners to save money, conserve our natural resources and protect our environment. The EEO has a mandate to develop and implement a comprehensive energy efficiency and conservation strategy for the city.
Residents of Toronto can make difference by implementing a few energy saving measures. Read our energy tips page to see what you can do to reduce your energy consumption around the house.
Below is a listing of our programs and services that are focussed on reducing energy use.
Technical expertise and support
Core services to the industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sector include:
- Technical assistance, assessment, and project support for ICI buildings
- Administration of consultant studies on energy efficiency (by project or portfolio)
- Database development of energy efficiencies gained in the Better Buildings Partnership and other programs
- Technical assistance to Toronto Atmospheric Fund Loans and Grants Review

Community Better Buildings Partnership
CBBP is an ad hoc group of municipalities sharing information and expertise. The City of Toronto collaborates with the Cities of Ottawa, the Greater Vancouver Regional District, Winnipeg, Kingston, London (England) and Buffalo in this initiative. The EEO profits from this fresh thinking in further refining the City of Toronto's BBP.
