Important update re power outage

Posted on Saturday, July 21st, 2018

Crews are continuing their work to restore power to our Ottawa Campus and we are pleased to report that last night our Residence was back to full power. Thank you to all our learners for their patience while we worked to set up generators, and to all the teams and employees who work in Residence for their ongoing support.

The ACCE Building is operating normally and all regularly scheduled activity there will continue without disruption.

We are unable to provide an ETA on the restoration of power to other parts of the Ottawa Campus, which are currently operating on emergency power.

Specialists have been brought in to further diagnose the problem and we will have another update for everyone later today. We are hopeful that we will be able to take advantage of our high-efficiency co-generation power plants, which can generate enough power to cover the baseline power needs of the Ottawa campus.

All regularly scheduled activities, programs, and services in areas of the Ottawa Campus other than ACCE Building remain suspended on Saturday and until further notice. Employees in non-essential roles are advised not to come to the campus.

We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your attention to this notice.

Please watch for updates on myAC and the College’s social media channels throughout the weekend
