SUSTAINABILITY 09-28-16
Eileen Horn, Sustainability Director, made a presentation to the County Commissioners with the annual Energy Efficiency Report.
The Sustainability and Energy Savings Reinvestment Fund started with $300,000 in 2011. To date, this fund has financed 21 projects including solar photovoltaic panels at the Douglas County Extension Office and Public Works, LED lighting retrofits, heat pumps and hybrid vehicles, with the savings returned to the energy fund. Overall, County energy consumption has been reduced by 20% saving the County $163,000 last year.
Many of the projects that were identified in the 2008 energy savings audit of County buildings have been completed. Horn suggested the County Commission consider contracting with a professional firm to identify future projects. She said the Douglas County jail and Youth Services buildings have potential for savings.
The Board directed staff to seek requests for proposals to get an estimate on an audit cost.
