Grid Resiliency
Sustainability and environmental stewardship are important factors in all of Enova’s work. We believe in protecting and fostering the natural environment around us while working to introduce sustainable energy sources and renewable resources across our electricity grid.
41%
Enova’s Country Squire office has decreased our demand on the grid by 41% thanks to our commitment to conservation, energy-efficient equipment operation, and the successful implementation of a solar array in 2022. The solar panel system delivers approximately 27% of the building’s yearly demand for electricity, and during the summer months, Enova provides a significant amount of electricity back to the grid.”

Through a partnership with Alveole, hundreds of pounds of honey have been harvested from Enova’s two beehives. The 48,000 bees that call Country Squire home work hard, producing honey and pollinating the local environment during the summer months.

Our LEED-certified Country Squire office and our Victoria Street offices have photovoltaic solar arrays. These arrays generated more than 627,000 kWh in 2024. That’s enough electricity to power more than 50 average residential homes for one year.
Enova’s commitment to seeking efficiency in everyday operations led to decreased water and energy usage at our Country Squire office. We’re also well into the design phase for the replacement of the heating and cooling system and building renovation for our Victoria Street office that will improve efficiency, lower water and energy usage and decrease our environmental footprint while improving customer access and enhancing employee comfort.
Our employee-led Green Team promoted efficiency through volunteer events, including the 2024 Sustainable Waterloo Region Carbon Cleanse and a neighbourhood spring clean-up event.
Enova’s partnership with Sustainable Waterloo Region and WR Community Energy allows us to help chart the future of Waterloo Region’s sustainability efforts. It ensures we’re meeting the needs of future generations of Enova customers and local residents.

$250,000
Enova donated $50,000 in reforestation grants to each of the five municipalities that our customers call home. The grants fund tree planting initiatives in each township and city we service. Approximately 345 trees were available to Wilmot residents through the Wilmot Roots program, and 600 trees were made available to Wellesley residents through the Planting Roots program. Enova’s grant also supports the Township of Woolwich’s Roadside Tree Planting Project and reforestation efforts in the City of Waterloo and the City of Kitchener.

627,192 kWh
Enova’s solar arrays generated more than 627,000 kWh in 2024. That’s enough electricity to power more than 50 residential homes for one year. It’s an increase of more than 15,000 kWh over 2024.

21%
Enova's Victoria Street office decreased its natural gas usage by more than 29,000 M3 in 2024. That’s a 21% decrease over the previous year. The decrease stems from the warmer temperatures enjoyed in 2024. The planned renovations at the office will decrease electricity and gas consumption even further once completed in 2026.
