Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board: Energy Efficient School Program

In 2010, the Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board (HWDSB) launched an Energy Efficient School Program (EES) with Vanderwesten & Rutherford Associates Inc. as the lead mechanical and electrical engineers.
 
Hamilton-Wentworth District School Board's Energy Efficient School Program involved a total of 10 schools, including:

• Gordon Price Elementary School
  
• Ridgemount Elementary School
  
• Collegiate Avenue Elementary School
  
• Janet Lee Elementary School
  
• Memorial (Stoney Creek) Elementary School
  
• Balaclava Elementary School
  
• Beverly Central Elementary School
  
• Greensville Elementary School
  
• Millgrove Elementary School
  
• Westmount Secondary School.

 
The Program involved the replacement of boilers, pumps and exhaust fans with more energy efficient models. The existing systems were not meeting heating requirements.
