At its October 2 and 3, 2019 meeting, City Council adopted Item IE7.10 giving authorization to the General Manager, Toronto Water, in consultation with the Director, Environment and Energy, and the City Solicitor to implement two wastewater energy transfer pilot projects with Noventa Partners Inc. ("Noventa"). It is intended that the outcome of these two pilot projects will serve to inform the future development by staff, and a further report back in 2020, of a wastewater energy transfer policy as also requested by City Council.

The Pilot Projects are to be undertaken by Toronto Water for a minimum of two years and that any access to the City's sewer infrastructure for the purposes of the Pilot Projects, and, specifically, access to the excess waste heat (thermal energy) generated by the City's wastewater distribution system provided to Noventa be limited to support only the Sunnybrook Hospital and the Humber College, North Campus, at Highway 27/Finch Avenue locations. Sunnybrook Hospital is unable to participate in the pilot project at this time.

Staff recommended
