Ontario Regulation 397/11, under the Green Energy Act, 2009 requires public agencies including municipalities, universities, colleges of applied arts and technology, school boards, municipal service boards (for water and sewage treatment and pumping operations) and hospitals to report their annual energy use and greenhouse gas emissions in designated facilities by July 1st, beginning in 2013.

These agencies are also required to develop and implement energy conservation and demand management plans every five years, beginning in 2014.
