Question:
How much is programmed in the CIP and in which year(s) for the Environmental Action Plan (EAP) phase 1 action on renewable energy strategy/model? (Mayor Wilson)
Response:
The Capital Improvement Program funds $100,000 for the Renewable Energy Supply Strategy in FY 2021 in the Energy Management Program (refer to page 12.10). This is an Environmental Action Plan Phase 1 Renewable Energy Action item. The scope of work will include determining a recommended mix of onsite & offsite (including direct purchasing or through utility partnership/programs) renewable electricity supply opportunities under various levels of energy efficiency implementation, transportation and building electrification, battery storage opportunities, grid mix, and electricity market conditions. The goal is to identify an optimal, long-run, least-cost or cost-saving portfolio of renewable energy supply options for greenhouse gas emissions offset and financial efficiencies.
