SUSTAINBILITY PROGRAM
Strongly committed
Our sustainability program entrenches the Palais des congrès
de Montréal as a leader in the city’s tourism industry and as the
premier venue for green events.
Level 7
1,818 m2
19,575 sq. ft.
After becoming one of the first convention centres in Canada to
earn the BOMA Best environmental certification, the Palais also
went on to surpass its energy saving objectives. The Palais uses
the latest innovations to continually improve its environmental
performance, a practice it started ever since it hosted the
seminal United Nations Framework Convention on Climate
Change in 2005.
In addition, in 2011 the Palais rolled out its Culti-Vert project,
aimed at bringing global recognition to best green roofing
practices and urban agriculture, including urban beekeeping
practices with 3 beehives. This unifying initiative contributes to
reducing heat islands, and has helped position Montréal as an
international city committed to sustainable urban development.
It enables us to harvest fruits, vegetables and fine herbs whose
freshness is unbeatable.
