How is hydro electricity produced?

Why is it important to save energy?

Keep windows and doors closed to keep heat in.

What is it called when something draws a small amount of power even when it isn’t being used?

Phantom Power Vampire Power

True or False? It uses more energy to turn the light on and off if you’re only gone for 5 minutes.

Turn off the light if you leave the room. What an idea!

How can you save energy in your classroom over lunch hour?

Which saves more energy: using a screen saver or turning off the monitor?

It’s that easy.

How does putting on an extra layer help save energy?

Bundle up Richmond! Keep it cozy

Now you’re more power smart!

Coming up!

Happy Offtober! Power smart month

Where do we use Energy in Schools?

Why Conserve Energy? Primary reasons are:  Cost In 2014 the District spent over $2million on energy bills.  Reduce Environmental Impact Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions and the Environment (hydro-electric projects)

What are our Conservation Targets? 2015 Targets: 3% Electricity Savings 5% Natural Gas Savings

How Can We Save Energy? PEOPLE Behaviour – turn off when not needed TECHNOLOGY LED lamps, motion sensors, daylight sensors PROCESS Schedule equipment to switch off when schools are unoccupied

ECO-WISE Energy-Saving Campaigns  Increasing participation through the year:  71% of facilities participated in 3 or more events;  Electricity Savings of around 221,282 kWh (equivalent to avoiding CO 2 emissions from 14 homes in a year).

When Everybody Works Together…

BURrrr SWEATER DAY

LIGHTS OUT LUNCHES

HOLIDAY SHUT-DOWNS

SUMMER SHUT DOWN This fridge used around 400kWh over the summer holidays and cost~$40 to keep the Aunt Jemimas syrup cold!

Some Energy Saving Campaign Results  Estimated energy savings from LOL and Shutdowns: 221,282kWh (or 2% of annual electricity for participating schools)  There are more than 229 fridge-freezers in our schools!  There are more than 46 dedicated freezers in our schools! (~40% were switched off during the Summer Shutdown saving around $3.5k).  Sweater Day – 1-2% of daily gas consumption was saved by reducing thermostat by 2 o C for 8hrs.

We need YOUR feedback  Which campaigns did you like best?  Why?  What worked well?  Which campaigns did you not participate in?  Why?  What didn’t work so well?
