Due to some complex technical problems, both power plant’s generators and local grid transmission lines do not have the potential to generate and transmit enough electricity to cover and meet all load demand during peak hours. Based on this technical difficulty, there is no solution for customers to use costly energy during peak hours and […]

The goal of the project is to use the Design Thinking framework as a guide to creating effective marketing and website materials that will help strengthen Glo3D’s brand image and broaden our reach as we enter new verticals. The candidate will be tasked to learn about the users of our software, as well as our […]

One way to improve the efficiency of a building is to use thermal storage material. A recent thermal storage strategy is to use phase change material (PCM) which allows for the storage and release of thermal energy. One of the main advantages of using PCM over traditional thermal storage (like concrete) is that PCM can […]

This project with the nature of business research tends to talk about LED development and variable applications, specifically about solar/LED at the community public lighting, complying with the roadway lighting design code approved by the city of London, ON and relevant professional bodies. The content analysis of main LED suppliers and LED industry, together with […]

S2E Company is developing a Smart Community in London, Ontario. This community will have the state of the art sustainable practices in community development. This community will be Net ZERO energy which simply means that it has zero net energy consumption and zero carbon emissions annually, minimize water usage, designed with sustainable storm water management, […]

As the underlying networks transition into 5G and 6G infrastructure, the optimal task performance across different WIoT devices with different energy consumption and computing power require coordination at both the software and hardware levels to maximize accessibility and minimize latency to support emerging applications. The proposed research will explore the various parameter space to determine […]

This research investigates means for achieving net zero energy dwellings and neighborhoods through maximizing solar potential of dwelling units, isolated and in assemblages. This study will help the community planner to design an efficient layout to achieve maximum solar fraction. Optimum combine building loads in community will lead to a more energy efficient mechanical and […]

This project will develop appropriate strategies for a “Smart Community” of the future with respect to the integration of food growing and processing spaces into the community. This may range from rooftop greenhouses, residential growing sunspaces, community gardens, food producing building components, etc. As well this proposal will investigate how food production will interact with […]

A significant gap in settlement services exists in access to higher education, specifically for youth with precarious immigration status. While education at the elementary and secondary level is generally recognized as a right for students with precarious status in most provinces, this does not extend to the post-secondary level. This Mitacs project is focused on […]

Public art brings numerous economic and socio-cultural benefits to main street communities, however, it can be challenging for communities to effectively measure these impacts. Therefore, this research project involves the development of a toolkit of instruments to be used within main street communities to aid in measuring the impact of public art. This will involve […]

City parks and outdoor recreational opportunities are among Toronto’s most valued resources. The Discovery Walks Program has been one of Toronto Parks, Forestry and Recreation’s flagship outreach efforts to engage residents and tourists alike in learning about culturally and environmentally significant areas across the city.
