Municipalities compete for
lowest energy use rating

i

NORTH SHORE municipalities
and residents are putting a lot of
energy into helping promote BC
Hydro’s Power Smart month.

By Peggy Trendeli-Whittaker
News Reporter

North Vancouver City and the
districts of North and West Van-
couver are battling head-to-head
to see which municipality can
conserve the most energy. And all
North Shore residents, along with
other British Coiumbians, are be-
ing asked to turn off all unneces-
sary lights at 8 p.m. on Wednes-
day, Nov. 14, for at least one
hour, so BC Hydro can measure
the resulting drop in energy re-
quirements.

The energy consumption of the
public buildings chosen to repre-
sent each municipality in the
North Shore Power Smart
Challenge is currently being
measured, and BC Hydro techni-
cians are doing energy audits of
each building to find ways for oc-
cupants to increase their energy
savings.

From Nov. 14 to 30, energy
consumption will be monitored
again, with points going to the
municipality that most decreases
its energy usage.

Points are also being awarded
for each municipality’s promotion
of the Power Smart message and
their adoption of Hydro’s
Municipal Energy Efficiency Poli-
cy — a step that’s already been
taken by North Vancouver City.

TURN IT off! B.C. residents are being asked to shut off all un-
necessary lights at 8 p.m. on the evening of Wednesday, Nov.
14, as BC Hydro Power Smart project manager and North Van-
couver resident Blair Yrousdell demonstrates. BC Hydro has
declared November Power Smart month and expects the one-
evening conservation effort will save one million kilowatt hours,
enough electricity to power 100 homes for a year. The three
North Shore municipalities are also participating this month in the
North Shore Power Smart challenge to prove who's the feader in
energy conservation.
