The system keeps utility costs low and is designed to connect to future towers in Oakvillage, creating a community energy system aligned with goals set out in the Town of Oakville\u2019s Community Energy Plan.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/NorthOak_Yoga.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox[218751]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-218754\" src=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/NorthOak_Yoga.jpeg\" alt=\"NorthOak_Yoga\" width=\"1728\" height=\"1080\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>North Oak\u2019s towers are bookended by a natural channel and the Athabasca Pond and its trail system of nearly 300 kilometres of greenspaces.
