The Energy Notebook: a concrete lever for energy-efficient renovations
The Energy Notebook for an Effective Transition project aims to equip the community housing sector with instant access to energy consumption data, as well as the technical knowledge needed to make informed decisions about energy-efficient renovations.
Implemented by the Centre de transformation du logement communautaire, this pilot project is based on the Portfolio Energy Star Manager tool, and includes pre- and post-retrofit awareness-raising workshops. More than 30 buildings managed by housing organizations and cooperatives in Greater Montreal will benefit from the project. Involving residents in this decarbonization process will help reinforce results and reduce GHG emissions over the long term.

Quote from the Centre de transformation du logement communautaire team
The Greater Montreal Climate Fund has given us a great opportunity to contribute to improving energy efficiency practices in the community housing sector. One of the strengths of the project is that it addresses both the technical and human aspects of renovation. Consumption data will enable us to take more effective action on buildings, while at the same time raising awareness among tenants.
