Date: January/February 2023

From melting glaciers in the Himalayas to wildfires in California, global warming has become an immediate and pressing crisis. The good news is that solutions currently exist to take immediate action in reducing emissions. According to the International Energy Agency, most of the global reductions in carbon emissions needed for Net Zero by 2050 come from technologies readily available today. Energy efficiency technology, specifically, can take us one-third of the way to net zero.  Ultimately, optimizing an educational facility's energy efficiency potential reduces energy usage and costs, improves the learning environment, and positively impacts the climate. While there may be challenges to implementing energy efficiency measures, there are also strategies readily at hand that facilities professionals can use to overcome those challenges and make energy efficiency a top priority in the year ahead.
