projects. The City will support the development community by providing clarity around regulations, policies, and bylaws that will impact the building sector. Renewable energy generation Renewable energy, when combined with energy efficiency measures, can meet much of Regina's energy needs while decreasing emissions. There are many sources of renewable energy, but in the Regina area, solar, wind, and geothermal are the most viable options Why? Regina is among the sunniest cities in Canada. The community can harness the abundant energy from the sun and other renewable energy sources such as wind and geothermal to heat, cool, and power our homes, schools, and businesses. What’s the plan? To develop programs and partnerships that support solar photovoltaic (i.e. solar panels) installations for buildings, contribute to the creation of solar gardens and wind farms, and explore solar heating from geothermal sources. What’s the goal? To generate 50 per cent of buildings’ electricity needs. This can be achieved by installing solar panels on new construction and existing buildings with adequate solar potential, and by building community solar and wind farms for additional generating capacity. Leading by example: The City will lead by example by installing renewable energy systems at municipal facilities. Solar panels have been installed at Maple Leaf Pool, Wascana Pool and the Glencairn Neighbourhood Recreation Centre among other City-owned buildings; solar panels are also prioritized for new building construction and any roof replacement projects. The City has used innovation and technology at the Landfill to turn methane gas into power and at the Wastewater Treatment Plant to offset natural gas usage. The City will explore opportunities for partnerships to develop large-scale solar and wind installations and geothermal heating. Low-emissions vehicles The future of the vehicle industry is electric vehicles. The federal government has set a target for all sales of personal and light-duty vehicles to be electric models by 2035. The City is developing and implementing strategies to meet this goal. Why? Transportation, including both personal and commercial vehicles, accounts for 26 per cent of Regina's energy use. Many residents drive to get to work, run errands and access different parts of the city. By replacing conventional gas and diesel vehicles with electric ones, along with using transit and more active modes of transportation, we can significantly reduce carbon emissions across the entire community. What’s the plan? The City can partner with stakeholders to install a network of electric vehicle charging stations and promote awareness about using electric vehicles in cold-weather climates. What’s the goal? To reach a target of 80 per cent of new vehicle purchases being electric by 2025, growing to 100 per cent by 2030. Leading by example: The City is reducing vehicle emissions in several ways. Using telematics technology, data is being used to improve efficiency of vehicle operation and routing in order to reduce fleet size and fuel usage. By 2030, all light-duty City vehicles purchased will be electric and City transit buses will begin to be electrified in 2024. For medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks, the City will explore electric or hydrogen-powered options, or renewable diesel as a transition fuel. Increase active transportation and transit use Walking, wheeling and cycling are examples of active transportation. Together, transit and active transportation - along with micromobility like e-bikes and electric scooters – are the building blocks of sustainable transportation networks. Why? Transportation, including personal and commercial vehicles, makes up 26 per cent of energy use in Regina. By making it easier for people of all ages and abilities to move around the city using active transportation, transit, and other sustainable modes, we can improve health and community wellbeing while reducing the number of motor vehicles on the road which, in turn, reduces emissions. What’s the plan? The City will introduce programs and initiatives that improve and expand public transit and active modes of transportation. An important part of this work will be building safe infrastructure that protects cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers. What’s the goal? By 2025, transit will account for 25 per cent of trips within Regina. By 2050, active transportation methods will account for 50 per cent of all short trips. Leading by example: City employees will be encouraged to use active transportation and transit for their commute. Active transportation and transit use are already being improved throughout the community. In 2022, City Council approved the Regina Transit Master Plan which guides decision making to make transit a primary mode of transportation and to make our community more accessible and sustainable. The Transportation Master Plan is under review and proposes dedicated infrastructure for active modes of transportation. ...
