The Millennium Exhibition Centre (MEC) in Altona, MB has completed a detailed Community Building Green Audit with Manitoba’s Climate Action Team, resulting in a multi-year climate action plan covering building systems, transportation, waste, water, food, and green infrastructure. The plan lists specific short‑, mid‑, and long‑term capital and operational projects such as heat recovery from the ice plant, heat recovery ventilation (HRV) for change rooms, smart/programmable thermostats, automated HVAC controls, air leakage testing and envelope sealing, solar or wind power generation, EV charging expansion, permeable pavement, and living walls. No vendors have been selected; the report explicitly frames these as recommended future actions that MEC leadership may pursue over time, with some in higher cost bands (>5000 or >20000) requiring contractors and engineering support.This creates a pipeline of upcoming consultative design, engineering, and construction opportunities for firms in energy efficiency, mechanical/electrical/HVAC, renewables, and site works. A practical next conversation is to help MEC and the Town of Altona prioritize the highest‑impact items, develop conceptual designs and budgets, and identify applicable provincial/federal grants or utility incentives to phase implementation.

Document thanks Environment and Climate Change Canada for funding the audit project, suggesting future implementation may pursue similar grant streams. Many proposed measures (e.g., solar, wind, HRV, permeable pavement) will require specialized engineering and contractor input and potential coordination with municipal public works and finance.
