Energy Action Plan

GhG By Department

The Energy Action Plan aims to set clear energy conservation goals and outline the strategies necessary to achieve them, ensuring that the City remains a good steward of public resources.

With the 2020 Baseline Greenhouse Gas (GhG) Emissions Report highlighting the significant impact of solid waste, wastewater, buildings, and the city’s vehicle fleet on our overall energy use, the Energy Action Plan will target these areas for improvement. The plan focuses on key facilities, including City Hall, the City-County Complex, the Public Works Campus, six municipal drinking water wells, the Civic Center, and more.

The Energy Action Plan is not just about reducing energy consumption; it’s about creating a sustainable, cost-effective future for Livingston. By improving the energy efficiency of our municipal buildings and transportation assets, the city aims to significantly lower operating costs while optimizing the use of our resources.

The first phase of the project will include the following tasks:

Task 1 - Goals
Facilitate a community workshop to identify and solidify energy conservation goals for areas identified in GhG Emissions Report.

Task 2 - Measurable Actions
Translate long-term goals into specific, measurable actions.

Task 3 - Prioritize Projects
Identify energy efficiency projects and conduct assessments to prioritize energy and water efficiency projects.

A public session will be held on October 8th at 5:30 PM in the Shane Center Ballrooom, where residents are encouraged to share their thoughts and contribute to the creation of the plan.
