Conservation and Efficiency
Energy conservation and Energy efficiency are presently the most powerful tools in our transition to a clean energy future. As depicted in the Energy Pyramid, renewable energy is an important piece of our energy future, but the largest opportunities are currently in energy conservation and efficiency. While we strongly encourage communities first evaluate and implement these solutions, the current focus of this website is on renewable energy generation technologies, so we have not developed materials on conservation and efficiency. There are many excellent resources for those researching these options, and we present a very small list here. Please make conservation and efficiency your top priority, as you work to move your community into our clean energy future.
We will be updating this page, especially as we gather information on how community energy efficiency efforts can be funded, and current examples of successful efforts. Please let us know if you have information you believe belongs here.
Good resources for more information on energy conservation and efficiency:
