This program involces obtaining a pledge by those committed to implementing energy efficiency measures and operating procedures that will lead to a sustainable reduction in electricity consumption.
Why:
We are committed to making Houston THE Energy Conservation Capital. THe downtown area has approximately 35 million square feet of office space. It is estimated that by eliminating just 50% of the lights routinely left on overnight and on the weekends, we can save 8.4M KW-Hours annually. That equals to almost $1 million annually. This is enough energy to power more than 600 Houston area homes for a year!
