Climate Leaders About Partner Joins Program EPA assists Partner in developing inventory and inventory management plan (generally within 1 year) Partner reports annual inventory data to EPA and documents progress toward goal Partner may participate in meetings, public outreach, press events, etc. Partner sets corporate wide 5-10 year GHG reduction goal, domestic or global, absolute or intensity Partner Achieves Goal

CHP Combined heat and power (CHP), also known as cogeneration, is the simultaneous production of electricity and heat from a single fuel source, CHP is not a single technology, but an integrated energy system that can be modified depending upon the needs of the energy end user. Overview

CHP ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Success Story The CHP system reduces CO2 emissions by an estimated 1,440 tons per year. This reduction is equivalent planting nearly 300 acres of forest.

EPA Programs EPA’s Climate and Energy State and Local Program assists state and local governments in their clean energy efforts by providing technical assistance, analytical tools, and outreach support. Specific assistance includes: Identifying and documenting cost-effective policies and initiatives that promote renewable energy, energy efficiency, and related clean technologies. Measuring and evaluating the environmental, economic, and public health benefits of clean energy initiatives. Fostering peer exchange opportunities for state and local officials to share information on best practices and innovative policies. Offering a suite of national voluntary programs that provide partners with assistance and recognition for their clean energy actions. www.epa.gov/cleanenergy/energy-programs/state-and-local/
