Sapperton District Energy Bylaw

New Westminster

New-Westminster

Our team assisted the City of New Westminster in establishing the new Sapperton District Energy System Service Area.

This work delineated the service area boundary and a phase-in approach for district energy connection.

  • We developed a Service Area Bylaw that defined specific connection requirements, building permit requirements, operational requirements, application fees and processes, metering procedures, levies and charges, offenses and penalties, and considerations of access and liability.

  • We drafted Technical Design Guidelines to ensure the compatibility of building mechanical systems with the DES.

  • We recommended specific options for associated policies, incentives, and other regulatory mechanisms to compel connection to the system.
