Located at 2505 Pioneer Road, next to Trent’s Wildlife Sanctuary, this one-of-a-kind centre provides environmental programming on sustainability, alternative energy and nature awareness to elementary and high school students. As one of the most sustainable buildings in the nation, the new centre contains many green features, including: energy-efficient lighting, composting toilets, geothermal radiant flooring, a living green roof, solar heated water, rainwater collection system, a wetland water treatment system and Ontario’s only thatch roof. Solar panels collect enough energy to power the centre, and surplus energy from the panels is sold back into the electrical grid.
