<strong>Rossland</strong> continues<br />

renewable energy<br />

leadership<br />

<strong>Rossland</strong> City Council unanimously<br />

adopted the West Kootenay 100% Renewable<br />

Energy Plan on <strong>Jan</strong>uary 4, 2021.<br />

They are the third local government to<br />

adopt the 100% renewable energy plan that<br />

they have been collaborating on with eight<br />

other West Kootenay local governments<br />

and West Kootenay EcoSociety. The renewable<br />

energy plan aims to save people money,<br />

make <strong>Rossland</strong> healthier and safer, support<br />

a stronger local economy and lower carbon<br />

pollution.<br />

“I am so pleased that the City of <strong>Rossland</strong><br />

adopted the 100% Renewable Energy Plan.<br />

It’s been a pleasure collaborating with our<br />

other local Kootenay government partners<br />

and the West Kootenay EcoSociety to bring<br />

the plan this far. I am confident that by<br />

working together our region can continue<br />

to lead the way towards a low carbon future<br />

by implementing the plan,” says <strong>Rossland</strong><br />

Mayor Kathy Moore.<br />

The plan has regional strategies as well<br />

as local actions that each community has<br />

prioritized as the most relevant to their<br />

community.<br />

“It’s been an incredible experience seeing<br />

the community coming together the<br />

past few years to support the council in<br />

the renewable energy transition. <strong>Rossland</strong><br />

has been a true leader in the transition to<br />

100% renewable energy, and they are setting<br />

the path forward for other small and<br />

rural communities like theirs to live healthier,<br />

safer and cleaner lives,” says Natasha<br />

Edmunds, organizing director at West<br />

Kootenay EcoSociety.<br />
