Bullfrog energy is the leading clean ener- gy provider in Canada with 100% energy solutions. “Our goal at the end of the day is to have green power production exclusi- vely renewable,” said Graeme Cunningham, sales manager at Bullfrog Power. “Simply put, Bullfrog’s commitment actually reads 470 tonnes per year. That’s like taking ap-

proximately 150 cars o! the road.” “Our mandate is to generate renewable energy in the community,”explained Janice Ashworth, operations manager at OREC. ”Out of 13 projects, four of them are with schools. We are working with teachers, students and parents together to achieve renewable energy in Ontario.”

Beau’s is brewing green

a totally sustainable brewery. We have a member’s only room where members can buy beer that the public cannot. Everyone else has to stare at it enviously!” “If you can’t beat them, "nd someone who can” “There is a saying that goes: if you can’t beat them, join them. But we say: if you can’t beat them, "nd someone who can,” Beauchesne jested. “We looked for other people to partner with and we found an even better plan than the original one we had.” Beau’s has developed four phases to their plan, to partner with Bullfrog Power, adding a small array of solar panels to their roof that will not e!ect the grid, for Bullfrog Power to construct a solar project somewhere in Champlain township, either a community centre or school to help pro- vide them with renewable energy, and forth, to partner with Ottawa renewable Energy Co-op (OREC) to encourage Gree- ner Future Members to invest in renewable energy. With a $100 membership, Beau’s will give their members a $20 rebate.
