Sustainability & Climate Action
MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
The $3 Billion Challenge
Canada’s businesses can realize $3 Billion in annual cost savings just from taking a simple business approach to manage their energy.
We reached this estimate at 360 Energy after reviewing ourcustomers’ achievements over the past 25 years.
Every company that has implemented a comprehensive energy management program has seen its productivity and operational performance improve.
This past summer, I had the honour of being invited by the Business Council of Canada to participate in a roundtable on Canada’s Economic Future. The discussions convinced me that even small-scale changes to our pattern of energy use would have enormous benefit to our country.
A national program, targeted to help all Canadian enterprises better manage their energy costs, would do wonders for our nation’s economic prospects.
So what can your company do? Read all the details below.

The kids are back in school. There’s a noticeable nip to the evening air. Hints of yellow and orange are appearing on the trees. Sure signs that summer is behind us.
Fall also marks an important time of year in the natural gas business.
Traditionally, natural gas users across North America take steps in October to secure natural gas supply for the upcoming twelve-month period.
The beginning of the winter heating season in November typically starts the “natural gas year”.
Right now, is the time for companies to make corporate-wide and site-specific preparations.
Whether they currently have supply contracts in place or not, gas users need to focus on their consumption volumes and consider strategies that will make the most of this transition.
