Advisory Council

We want to hear from Nova Scotians.

That's why we've created the Minister's Advisory Council on Energy Efficiency and Conservation.

This is a forum for discussion and key advice on the role of Conserve Nova Scotia, our programs and activities, and our future direction.

We are proud to have a group of volunteers with a strong interest in, and general knowledge of, energy efficiency matters.

They are engaging in broad-ranging discussion that will serve to guide us as we move forward.
