BOMBARDIERjet fuel instead of propane heating – to generate heat for occupied spaces. With an investment of approximately $28,000 US, we expect to save $16,000 US and 23,000 kg CO2e per year over the lifetime of the furnace.In addition, we aim that all our new buildings be designed to high environmental standards. As such, our Bombardier Transportation Prototyp- ing Centre, which was inaugurated in 2012 in Saint-Bruno, is a model. This LEED-certified building was built us- ing green site development techniques as well as ecological and recycled ma- terial. It was carefully oriented to opti- mize natural light and features radiant heat and water conservation systems.How will the company continueto diversify its aerospace products in order to enter new markets?At Bombardier Commercial Air- craft, our focus is on completing the development of our C Series airliner, a game-changing product designed specifically for the 100- to 149-seat seg- ment. This aircraft will open new mar- kets for Bombardier due to its unique features, which include the lowest noise levels of any commercial aircraft in production, a 20% fuel burn advan- tage resulting in lower CO2 emissions as well as superior range and airfield performance. We are expecting to ob- tain certification for the aircraft by the end of 2015.At Bombardier Business Aircraft, our priority is the Global 7000/800019
