The Climate Change Secretariat, Nunavut Housing Corporation and Qulliq Energy Corporation are proud to work together to help Nunavummiut become Energy Wise.

The collaboration aims to foster a more energy-aware community for a sustainable future. By empowering Nunavummiut with knowledge and resources, we strive to make our territory more energy-wise and environmentally responsible.

Nunavummiut can connect with the Energy Wise campaign’s Facebook page, where you can access valuable tips and information on reducing energy use, helping you save money while contributing to environmental conservation.

Here are some ways individuals can conserve energy and reduce energy costs in Nunavut:

  • Choose energy-efficient electronics and turn off when not in use.
  • Unplug unused appliances to avoid constant energy consumption.
  • Use electrical timers for vehicle block heaters.
  • Turn off lights when leaving a room or while sleeping.
  • Use your microwave or toaster oven instead of the conventional oven.
  • Apply weather-stripping barriers to doors and windows to prevent heat loss.
  • Install water-saving flush kits in toilets to conserve water usage.

The Climate Change Secretariat is responsible for the coordination and development of Nunavut’s energy strategy to address our dependence on imported fuels. The Secretariat monitors energy-related issues, develops and delivers energy-related programs and services, and organizes action on energy decisions.
