Local Action Recommendations : Michigan

  
Locality:Ann Arbor
  
Sector:Power Generation
  
Local Policy Description:Energy Efficiency

The energy efficiency strategies outlined in Ann Arbor's Local Action Plan encourage sectors to replace older, less efficient technology, with newer, less energy intensive models. Other methods to decrease building energy consumption, as well as programs to effectively switch from carbon-based fuels to non-carbon based renewable sources of energy, are also examined. Programs detailed in this category often employ incentive and volunteer-based methods to promote these changes.
