Achievements

We were the first energy company in Québec to implement an energy efficiency program for customers. We have more than 20 energy efficiency solutions specifically designed for our customers, be they residential or big business. Since our program was launched in 2001, these solutions have helped our customers save more than 700 million cubic meters of natural gas, the equivalent of more than twice the consumption of new residential customers.

We have adopted a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) approach and the actions of recent years have reaffirmed our intentions in terms of DEI, updated our objectives and improved our strategies.

We wish to optimize and develop our operational models, by ensuring the physical and technological robustness and resilience of our facilities as well as by modernizing its business capacities in order to enable it to achieve its organizational objectives.

We want to comply with the CSA 20400 standard for responsible purchasing by integrating purchasing behaviors in line with our values as well as efficient and responsible purchasing practices that focus on needs planning, effective management costs and adequate coverage of commercial risks.

Versprofiles : an inspiring case
Versaprofiles, a manufacturer of natural gas pipelines based in Saint-Lazare-de-Bellechasse, has been Énergir’s main main supplier of polyethylene lines since 2016. Rather than purchasing these pipelines in Western Canada, which is home to numerous manufacturers, we chose a local and responsible supplier, with positive spin-offs for the community. This greatly simplified the supply chain, saving at least 238,000 kilometres in pipeline-delivery transportation annually (the equivalent of around 198 tonnes of greenhouse gas), reducing costs by 80% and decreasing supply chain waste.
