Review of GLA Goals 1. Position State Government to Lead by Example 2. Reduce Energy Use in Government Buildings 3. Increase Use of RE Resources and EE Technologies 4. Reduce Emissions through Vehicle Choice and Technology 5. Reduce Fuel Consumption by State Fleet 6. Reduce Fuel Consumption by State Employee Vehicles
Review of GLA Goals Top Shorter-Range Priorities for IEEC 1.3 Establish a Self-Sustaining Fund for EE Projects in State Government 2.1 Apply High Performance Building Standards to New Construction and Renovation 3.1 Encourage RE and EE for Existing State-owned Buildings and Facilities
Review of GLA Goals 1.3 Establish a Self-Sustaining Fund for EE Projects in State Government - Demand Response - Energy Conservation Bonds - Set aside portion of energy budget(s) - Current funding from Capital Budget Appropriations, ARRA, voluntary agency investments
Review of GLA Goals 2.1 Apply High Performance Building Standards to New Construction and Renovation - Update Executive Order 2005-4 on energy efficiency in state operations - SB409 calls for high performance building standards for state-funded buildings (with 10 year payback, >25k sq ft, other exemptions)
Review of GLA Goals 3.1 Encourage RE and EE for Existing State- owned Buildings and Facilities - SB73 will call for annual energy conservation plans from all state agencies - State Energy Manager provides technical assistance to agencies on energy efficiency and renewables
Review of GLA Goals 3.1 Encourage RE and EE for Existing State-owned Buildings and Facilities - Kilowatt Countdown - Walker Building pilot w/motion sensor power strips - OEP likely to fund study on RE potential at state facilities and lands - $3 million in capital funds ARRA funds
