In order to reduce electricity costs and contribute to the sustainability of the province’s energy system, Queen’s University is once again participating in an electricity peak demand management program this summer. With temperatures and humidity levels remaining high across the province, today (Tuesday, July 5) will be our third Electricity Demand Response Day of the summer.

If you are interested in helping with the response, please turn off non-essential lighting during the day and shutdown your computers and other non-essential equipment before you leave at the end of the day.

Wednesday, July 6 has the potential to be a response day; however, a separate notification will be issued tomorrow to either confirm or cancel the response.

More information about the electricity peak demand management program is available on the sustainability website. Those with questions may also contact Fixit at extension 77301 (internal), 613-533-6757 (external) or email.
