The Energy Performance Workshop results predict a 69% energy savings for the above design compared to the CBIP standard.

This single ice sheet arena is presently under construction and replaces the old building which has been demolished. It is a LEED Silver targeted project, incorporating high efficiency boilers, heat recovery ventilators and heat recovery from the refrigeration process to pre-heat domestic hot water, heat the ice melting pit and the arena sub-floor.
