On 3 December, 2018, the Department of Planning had a soft launch of Energov in tandem with the publication of the Draft Bermuda Plan 2018. The Department of Planning is excited to introduce the next phase of implementation which will allow for improvements to the efficiency and transparency of the Department’s business processes.

The release of the Energov system is in line with strategies set out by the Minister of Home Affairs, the Hon. Walter Roban in a Ministerial Statement delivered on 10 May, 2019 - when he mentioned plans to streamline the Planning process and move to a paperless system.
