Nova Scotia Department of Energy

Renewable energy is crucial to securing a greener, cleaner Nova Scotia. To help make renewable energy more accessible, Nova Scotia Power Inc. has a program called Net Metering. Residential and commercial customers can connect small, renewable energy generating units to the provincial power grid. With this approach, Nova Scotians have the opportunity to use renewables for their own energy needs while at the same time having the security of being able to draw from the grid, if necessary.

Electronic Engineering Technologists are finding rewarding work in many areas of our society. In the biomedical field, they operate and maintain a range of medical electronic equipment. For example, there is increased use of medical monitoring systems, which enable patients to carry on their daily activities while a sensor collects bio-data and transmits it back wirelessly or over the internet to medical personnel. In areas of ecology and wildlife conservation, electronic devices are used to track endangered species as they move about the wild.
