INITIATIVES TO IMPROVE ENERGY EFFICIENCY

In 2019, Quebecor continued taking steps to improve energy efficiency at its offices and technical facilities. Here are just a few examples:

• Testing and standardizing more efficient, less polluting carbon-dioxide-based cooling systems for its technical facilities;

• Gradually replacing the equipment in its server rooms with air conditioners that can use outside air to cool technical facilities;

• Optimizing the heating and cooling systems at Videotron’s offices.

SUPPORT FOR START-UPS WORKING ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Quebecor is helping to grow the sustainable economy through its Pierre Péladeau Bursaries program. Over the 21 years since the program began, it has supported the start-up of more than 60 companies, many of them involved in energy efficiency and transportation electrification, such as AddÉnergie, RVE and Effenco.

Quebecor encourages employees to use sustainable transportation

To encourage sustainable mobility, Quebecor has been participating in the Société de transport de Montréal’s OPUS+ program and the BIXI group discount program for years. These programs let employees at several Quebecor subsidiaries receive discounts on public transit passes and BIXI bike rentals. In 2019, Quebecor also held a conference on electric vehicles as part of Équiterre’s Electrifying Encounters at Work campaign.
