Sustainability and Energy Action Plan

IMPLEMENTATION GRANTS PASS SUSTAINABILITY AND ENERGY ACTION PLAN Achieving the first Plan benchmark of 65% reductions by 2030 will be far more feasible than it might seem due to State -mandated reductions in fossil fuels in public electric utility grids which will account for around a 60% reduction – leaving only 5% to the City .93 The model used in this Plan has the following taking place during this time period:Pathway to 65% Reductions by 2030 Accomplishing these steps, combined with some modest gains anticipated from the initial implementation of policies, is projected to produce a 69% reduction in emissions and $333,726 in savings annually.94 The buffer room between this and the 65% goal should be sufficient to account for any increases due to population change beyond the 10.9% increase used in modeling95, or delays in Pacific Power’s own transition. The inclusion of some additional endeavors for the sake of their project timelines should be allowed for as well. Starting these projects now to benefit from currently available funding resources96, and so that reaching later goals does not become more challenging, is critical.87 BE-3-1 Coordinate Pumping Systems BE-6-1 and BE-6-3 Solar Field Projects at the Foothill Landfill Site and Wastewater Pump StationBE-1-1 Weatherization of High EUI Buildings T-1-1 General Purpose ZEV Rollout (replacement of 26 oldest)T-2-1 Initial Charging Infrastructure Rollout (approx. 13 dual -port Level 2 or better chargers to support initial 26 vehicles to be purchased during this period) BE-2-1 & BE 2 -3 Microgrid Development at Water Restoration Plant and Police Station BE-1-4 Automation CM-2 & CM-3 Recycling ImprovementsBE-1-2 Energy Efficient Lighting Improvements
