An Energy Business Plan
Community Energy ACTION Plan
• Don’t have one – time to do one– Not a technical exercise
– It’s a business exercise that captures the energy
needs and ‘desires’ of your community
• Have one – good start – Take another look at it
– Foundational information – something to build on.
– An ongoing process – a business plan is not static
– Identify a need – get started and build on the
results
• IESO has funding
