About Canada's Green University™

As Canada’s Green University™, the University of Northern British Columbia is committed to minimizing its environmental impact and operating costs by reducing energy consumption through energy efficiency projects, student and staff engagement, and energy awareness campaigns. Not only are we bound to this through a lens of social responsibility, but from the standpoint of our strategic priorities. In recognition of these efforts, we are consistently named one of 'Canada's Greenest Employers'.

We are pleased to announce that UNBC has installed 3 new electric vehicle charging stations as of June 2021. They are Siemens high-end residential style units, which are easier to operate and free to use (beyond regular parking fees on campus). There are two charging stalls in parking lot B, and one charging spot beside the entrance to Hospitality Services. 

Please visit the Electric Vehicle page for more information on the new units and how to use them.
