What is Neutopia?
About Neutopia ecoSOLUTIONS Inc.
Neutopia’s Green Development Network (“Neutopia” or the “Company”) is a corporation established under the laws of Ontario that provides turn-key solutions for the sale, installation, and management of Energy Efficiency and Renewable or Clean Fuel technologies. Neutopia is the inventor of the ERS Community Program which combines ecoPark Development with a proprietary Smart City program, and is the sole end‐to‐end ERS solution provider in the world and is now training engineering firms and installation teams on how to incorporate our program into their own projects.
Please also check out our massive website full of examples of current projects and case studies – our ERS Program has zero competition.
Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come…welcome to Neutopia!

Main website
The Neutopia network is composed of dozens of companies and experts from a variety of scientific disciplines and industrial backgrounds. We have attracted widely respected advisors, scientists, a television host (World’s Greenest Homes), award winning green architects (Toronto & Los Angeles), renewable energy experts (including advisors from leading engineering firms, process equipment manufacturers and technology supply companies for Solar, Wind, Geo-thermal, Biogas, Cogeneration, Hydro, Waste Management, Hazardous Waste, Wastewater Treatment) and an in-house team of dedicated project managers and scouts ready to make a positive difference in this world. Chances are we have already partnered with an engineering company covering your own region! Our last projects had more than 50 advisors and 7 engineering firms.
Our “2-hour Odyssey into the Realm of Cleantech and Sustainable Communities” public awareness seminar will reveal case studies of our technologies from around the world and from right here in our own backyard.
We continue to generate interest following every lecture, always receiving new resumes and calls from enthusiastic new graduates and entrepreneurs. We are also very proud to be attracting people from the communities we visit who are unemployed and eager to start working with a team that is going to help guide their town into the Green Revolution. Our website was just launched and we have no doubt that we will be engaging more and more Neutopia project scouts, essentially branching out to new towns all over the world.
Neutopia is essentially a company that has developed alliances with leading companies in their respective fields giving us the experience, the technical and the financial capability to develop the projects and opportunities we identify. We issued our RFP’s well in advance of developing our business proposals, all based on the fundamental Neutopia ecoPARK and Sustainable Communities template.
It is this network that enables us to identify and confirm base-case scenarios and then scale up according to the opportunities, resources and desires of each community that recruits us. We then simply transform sustainability problems into social solutions.
“We know we can change the world;
one green community at a time…”
Current Projects and Success Stories
Feasibility Studies are Over – Education & Implementation is Happening Now
A multitude of studies were conducted over the past few years to confirm our calculations and savings opportunities across a wide variety of client types including homes, apartments, hotels, senior homes, hospitals, shelters, office buildings, warehouses, industrial sites, and farms which we all know NEED to increase their bottom line and benefit from energy conservation initiatives.

Government Grants, Utility Co. Rebates, and Incentive Programs
Neutopia became an authorized representative of the provincial hydro rebate program back in 2013, and has alliances with key groups and site auditors all part of Neutopia’s Project Development Network. Much of what we do qualifies for a variety of grants and incentives. We can handle all the paperwork and applications if your office would prefer to focus their time on other more urgent needs. We are formally trained and fully capable.
Neutopia became an authorized representative of the provincial hydro rebate program back in 2013, and has alliances with key groups and site auditors all part of Neutopia’s Project Development Network. Much of what we do qualifies for a variety of grants and incentives. We can handle all the paperwork and applications if your office would prefer to focus their time on other more urgent needs. We are formally trained and fully capable. In fact, some of our partners are the actual teachers, trainers, and professors at some of Canada’s largest colleges and universities. We have a train-the-trainer program, and are already saving energy managers and engineers from making big mistakes in following outdated and lesser quality programs whose savings come nowhere close to what people can and should be saving.
After attending a government-funded Energy Conference last year and witnessing some of the biggest mistakes made in Canadian history regarding Hydro and basic Energy projects, we urge everybody to go through a short training session BEFORE YOU PARTICIPATE IN ANY GRANT OR REBATE PROGRAM because of the savings that are missed, the calculations that are done wrong, the sizing and selecting of solutions that can be historical mistakes for every building, for every community. You can speak directly with representatives of our unique Program, which is completely separate from the IESO or OPA or any government program, completely funded by our own network, and which was designed to find out how to cut your energy costs in half in the first few weeks or months, not take years before seeing any progress. Call us for the relevant contact persons and we will arrange an introductory seminar online or at your location to go over all the details.
We invited government representatives to meet with us many times over the years, and most recently to participate in our program in November 2018…so far there has been limited success in attracting any interest. We are still hoping to receive a call to arrange a meeting so we can help them understand the scope of the amazing work that Neutopia has done and how we are helping people across Ontario. After sending invitations to inform 1,500 politicians and every member of parliament in 2017 about our massive study and the historical findings, and seeing the lack of interest, it led us to realize that we need to do this on our own. Nobody else is doing it. So we immediately set out to create the turn-key development network with full eco-financing. We are now the sole entity providing this program and it can save communities and business owners and home owners from wasting tens of millions of dollars on the wrong programs, the wrong solutions, the wrong calculations, the wrong methods for auditing buildings and energy needs etc. We are NOT saying that the government or any particular office is doing anything malicious, they have the best intentions, we are simply saying that the province is in a mess when it comes to energy and our program saves far more money than any other program that we’ve investigated. Our research shows that there are things that should be done BEFORE doing any of those government programs; there are things that people are doing wrong – the people receiving the money from the government, the un-trained energy managers, the consultants who are pushing their own agendas, the community leaders who have no formal training, the companies who are writing energy plans without following basic science that should be conducted BEFORE recommending or implementing particular solutions….we’ve seen hundreds of millions of dollars already wasted or spent on the wrong programs and wrong solutions….wrong in the sense that the community or building owners are NOT saving as much money as they could have saved if they had followed a different route. When we say it is ‘Wrong’ we mean “less favourable” or “saves less” or “there are better ways” or “we know if they did something differently they would have saved so much more”.
A perfect example is the popular government rebate programs for saving on energy, where it limits how much money a business or community can actually save because of how they are managed, what solutions are delivered and how the project is completed. Those programs are not even comparable to what Neutopia is doing. We are actually training Green Building Specialists straight out of college who have been trained the wrong way!! Our training seminars go over real-life examples of people funded by those government programs and how much money they’ve saved, and we compare how Neutopia’s program works and highlight the difference in dollars.
It is truly staggering.
Neutopia and Indigenous People’s
In Ontario Neutopia is already working with First Nations Chiefs who understand the scope of Neutopia’s program goes far beyond any competitors, most of whom can only do a portion of what our program offers because we have intellectual property in our own program and have exclusive technologies that can be installed prior to doing any common energy retrofits or even sizing for Renewable Energy projects. We have also met with representatives of The Métis Nation of Ontario who have agreed to have Neutopia train teams to help with roll-out of our solution across their communities.
Federal and Provincial Government Participation
Neutopia has been speaking with an office of the government of Canada about our unique program and how we are going to train thousands of field reps across Canada (including a special program for people with disabilities) and will be holding training sessions in major cities across the country as our program is rolled out. A list of training sessions and cities is available online.
We invited 1,500 mayors and city councillors and all members of parliament to notify their business associations and all business owners, small and large, that we figured out how to cut the bills 20% to 50% for all businesses and have a simplified program that enables people of all skill levels to participate. We are now working with select community officials who were immediately interested and wanted help. We will be showcasing these community leaders at our Neutopia Day being planned at the Toronto Convention Centre, along with special guests and key speakers who will share their stories of how much money we’ve saved them.
Special Case Study: Off-grid and Remote Community
Neutopia has secretly been working on one of the most historical projects of its kind right here in Ontario; a commercial entity recruited Neutopia in December 2018 to see if we could help them get ‘Off-grid’ as much as possible, while still obeying provincial laws and regulations with regards to ‘staying connected’ to the provincial grid. The landowner, who covers the energy bills for 170 tenants who live in individual dwellings, was simply tired of all the energy hikes and headaches of dealing with expensive Power Outages.
The result: 97.6% Off-Grid capacity with Neutopia providing full eco-financing at rates so low that the land-owner decided to bundle her remaining mortgage with us, which did not make her Bank happy. But if you want to play in the energy market, you really should be prepared to offer lowest-cost financing and full-turn-key solutions at all levels of the project.
Our project includes a combination of energy savings technologies, smart grid technology, power quality improvements, energy storage, energy monitoring systems, 2-way utility-type communication systems, renewable energy generation (which included full-scope assessments for Run-of-River Hydro, small-scale Point-of-use Wind, Solar farm, generators, and Neutopia’s unique ERS System in a box which combines multiple technologies).
Forestry
Neutopia trained 80 representatives from Quebec’s forestry companies at a conference with Hydro Quebec to explain various power & energy issues on the electrical grid, and we demonstrated how our ERS Solution can cut electricity bills at forestry operations by over 50%. This can change entire industries.
Farms
Neutopia conducted our first farm study to determine how integrating our ERS Solution can immediately cut the energy consumption of the farm; the results were a whopping 24%. With ERS we are able to offer solar panels and wind turbines (any on-site generation) with a significantly faster payback due to the elimination of the need for added inverters and by increasing the productivity and reducing the wasted energy all measured and guaranteed in advance of installation.
Apartment Complexes
Neutopia is the company behind the world’s smartest Apartment Complex, located in Mississauga, Ontario. Our ERS solution included complete building energy measuring and monitoring. The Property Managers are able to see every second of energy use in real time. No more cheesy annual or monthly graphs with useless information provided by the many companies offering common utility data. Now the PM’s get to see every detail imaginable in real time; when a light-switch is turned on, a fan, pump, motor, even seeing when a tenant opens the refrigerator door. All without installing expensive sensors all over the building – and no crazy monthly service fees…those days are over now that true Smart Building solutions are here. What’s more – it’s all connected to their smart phone and even sends a text message or alert when something happens that requires immediate attention. Complete and total building management now in the palm of their hand.
Neutopia HOME ERS Solution – Savings are Guaranteed with 20 year warranty
Studies conducted in the 1950’s through to the 1980’s revealed that most electrical technologies were too expensive and did not apply for residential implementation. Neutopia has done studies that prove this to be incorrect, and that savings as high as 41% have been achieved, measured and reproducible. We have now installed in retail, commercial, and homes with immediate savings and this enables us to offer our home system with a 1 year trial – Try for a whole winter and entire summer to convince yourself before deciding to keep it.
Grocery Stores
Neutopia has received many requests from some of the largest Grocery Store chains in the country. We’ve met with many franchise owners who have all asked for help. Unfortunately, repeated requests for participation got stopped at the head office of the company that owns the chains, for reasons that seem obvious but for which we’ll turn our heads to focus on other more positive things; like being recruited by independently owned and managed Grocery Store. Our preliminary estimates are showing a greater than 50% cut off the total electricity bill is possible. At least we can help the independent owners who pay their own bills and manage their own buildings.
We launched our first major marketing campaign to high priority regions across Ontario in late 2010 as part of the business feasibility study. This was done without any corporate sponsorship or government grants or subsidies of any kind, hoping it will inspire other like-minded people who believe we need to become the change we want to see, and that we are capable of doing it today.
