Energy costs are second to only personnel costs as the top draw on K-12 budgets. By implementing an energy savings project, up to 25% of the energy costs in a school can be saved. Not only do these savings benefit the school, they also benefit the community.
- Jobs are created within the community
- Materials can be purchased from local suppliers
- Manufacturing of lighting and HVAC equipment is increased
- Reduced costs for school districts mean they can operate with less money
- Operating with less money means schools would not have to collect as much money in taxes
- Paying less in taxes for the American taxpayer means more money in the local taxpayer’s pockets
