We are very proud to announce that Thivya Viswanathan, TOTA's Energy Analyst, was named one of thirteen #EnergyChampions from across the country by Efficiency Canada. Through the feature, Thivya shares her story, background, and passion for creating a greener, more resilient, eco-friendly future.
In her role with TOTA, Thivya works closely with tourism and hospitality businesses to help owners and facility managers understand their energy consumption patterns and identify opportunities for improved efficiencies and cost savings. She also offers virtual assessments of a business’s equipment and shares details about energy efficiency rebates.
“ Understanding where energy is consumed, and where efficiencies can be found, help us better understand our own emissions and our own energy costs. Through my position as Energy Analyst, I help businesses in the region reduce both their emissions and their operating costs.”
