Background:
Since its creation in 2006, the Bowmanville Plant’s E=MC2 group has generated over CAN$ 10 million in savings and revenue for the Bowmanville facility. The Bowmanville Plant is the first site in North America to receive certification for the ISO 50001 Energy Management Standard, thus underscoring its commitment towards energy conservation. This standard is built on the same continual improvement model as the other high profile ISO Systems. The Bowmanville Plant uses its certification to ISO 50001 as the framework for establishing the systems and processes necessary to improve energy performance and efficiency while reducing and optimizing energy consumption.
