Energy Commitment

In 2010, SFU signed a Statement of Action committing itself to institutional energy savings goals as a means to support the Sustainability Policy (GP 38).

The Statement of Action commits SFU to:
 
  • Reduce total energy consumption by a minimum of 2% per year
  • Develop achievable and practical plans to achieve our reduction goals
  • Support the provincial government’s goal of reducing greehouse gas emissions by 33% below 2007 levels by 2020, to achieve the goal of 80% reduction by 2050.
  • Implement a rigorous measurement and verification procedure, and strive to be fully accountable for our actions
  • Exercise leadership in engaging the university community to contribute to saving energy through behavioural change and educational events
