TORONTO - Municipal representatives with an interest reducing their energy costs through the purchase of ENERGY STAR qualified products are encouraged to attend this informative workshop.

This one-day workshop will address ways municipalities can lower these energy costs through the purchase of ENERGY STAR qualified products and how the procurement of these products can be easily integrated into municipal procurement policies.

Purchasing; Public Health/Air Quality/Energy; Computer Operations; Facilities and Real Estate; Finance; Policy Makers; and Public Housing Managers

Topics will include: ENERGY STAR Procurement Toolkit for Municipalities

Review of draft report to council recommending an ENERGY STAR procurement policy
Financial justification of ENERGY STAR products
Strategy for follow-up networking and support
