Efficiency Canada at Carleton University to Join Prime Minister for Announcement on Energy Efficiency in the Residential Sector
Corey Diamond, executive director of Efficiency Canada, will join Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and cabinet ministers today to make a virtual announcement on supporting energy efficiency in the residential sector.

Carleton researchers are doing groundbreaking work on energy efficiency in numerous areas, including policy, regulations, engineering and business.
