Implementation Plan Overview and Expected Outcomes

Implementation Plan

The implementation plan outlines a phased approach for integrating smart energy solutions across campuses, with a focus on feasibility, pilot expansion, and full-scale rollout. This will drive significant energy savings, emission reductions, and enhanced sustainability credentials.


Phase 1 (2025):

Feasibility & Stakeholder Engagement

  • Allocate $50k for feasibility studies and workshops with Facilities Management.
  • Pilot IoT sensors in Newnham’s STEM buildings.
Phase 2 (2026):

Pilot Expansion

  • Install SEOF in 10 buildings at Newnham Campus.
  • Train staff on real-time dashboards.
Phase 3 (2027):

Full Rollout

  • Expand to 50% of campuses (King, Markham, and Newnham).
  • Integrate solar energy data into the SEOF system.

Expected Outcomes

  • Energy Savings: 35% reduction by 2027, saving $1.2M over 10 years.
  • Emission Reductions: 1,200 MTCO₂e annually (Seneca College, 2024).
  • STARS Compliance: Strengthen Seneca’s Gold rating through renewable integration (AASHE, 2023).
