About Us - Environment


Energy Ottawa is committed to providing and developing environmentally responsible forms of energy. Our two hydroelectric generating stations on the Ottawa River are among a small handful of Canadian green power generation facilities certified by the highly demanding and widely respected Federal government sponsored EcoLogo program. These generating stations utilize the natural flow of the Ottawa River at the historic Chaudière site; 100% of the output from these stations is EcoLogo certified.

The renewable electricity from our landfill gas-to-energy generating station at City of Ottawa's Trail Road Landfill is being sold to the Province of Ontario under a 20-year contract to assist the Province in meeting its goal to have 10% of Ontario’s power supplied by renewable generation.  In addition to the environmental benefits, Energy Ottawa has taken over the costs of operating and maintaining the landfill gas collection system from the City and provides an annual royalty to the City for the use of the landfill gas.

Our energy management and procurement services are geared toward saving our customers' money and reducing their energy consumption. We also actively pursue opportunities and partnerships for developing new alternative forms of green power generation and offering products and services that are more friendly to our environment.
