      History

      The Energy Group was created in 1979 and was administered through the Industry Division of the Ontario Ministry of Industry and Tourism. Although the Energy Conservation and Oil Substitution Incentive Program was to run for three years, the demand for grants exhausted the budget, and when the new Ontario Ministry of Industry and Trade was created in 1982, the program was halted.

      The Energy Group ran a program known as the Energy Conservation and Oil Substitution Incentive Program, which encouraged Ontario manufacturing plants to convert from oil to alternate energy sources and to implement energy-saving measures in production processes. This was accomplished through a grant program. The agency was also responsible for the operation of the Energy Bus, which toured Ontario and promoted energy conservation.
