  • To publish and display the wide range of different energy projects covering a diversified mix of interesting technologies and plans concerning cities and local residential areas.

This is the open framework from where we have decided to start and imitate the UBC Energy commission. But it is of vital importance that all UBC cities that join the commission exercise, their equal right to influence and expand the agenda according to our common best. This is a part of a democratic process where we together will form the inner workings of the Energy Commission - and actual value to for us as citizens.
