Going Green & Saving Green

The COG is assisting both McKinley County and the State of New Mexico in managing energy efficiency programs and projects.

McKinley County Energy Efficiency

Picture
The Northwest New Mexico Council of Governments has been assisting Energy Control Inc. on implementing an Energy Performance Services Contract for McKinley County. The contract is framed around constructing a series of facility improvement projects based on proactive energy management. The improvements consisted of Condensing Boilers, LED Streetlights, Chiller Efficiency, Exterior Lighting Upgrades, Occupancy Sensors, Advanced Automation & Control, Energy Recovery Ventilator, and others. The project, including several other installations will be finalized in the coming months. McKinley County strives to reduce energy use and save money on utilities of all county facilities through proactive management and improvements. Looking at the data from the first three months (June - August 2015), the McKinley County Courthouse and Adult Detention Center have experienced major energy savings with additional improvements to be made in the future.
