Clean Water Act Conviction: Fiscal Year 2010; Case ID# CR_1967 (Georgia)
City of Harlem Public Works Director sentenced to prison for illegal discharge and false statements

INVESTIGATIVE REPORT
  • IN 1912 THE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO BECAME A PIONEER OF DISTRICT ENGERGY (DE), ESTABLISHING A CENTRAL STEAM GENERATION PLANT
  • IN 2012, BROOKFIELD PURCHASED THE PROJECT FOR $480 MILLION
  • BY 2021, THE VALUATION OF TORONTO'S RENEWABLE ENERGY PROJECT HAD GROWN TO $4.1 BILLION
This story is about how Toronto "turned a money-losing steam business into the largest district energy company in North America". The path to the project's success is sprinkled with allegations of corruption, public-private jockeying, and concerns about transparency and public accountability.
