Expand energy savings performance contracting for public sector buildings

Expand the use of energy savings performance contracting to finance emissions reduction upgrades in public buildings and facilities.

Page 202: "The State should enact enabling legislation to expand the use of energy savings performance contracting to support implementation of emissions reduction upgrades in State and municipal buildings, P-12 schools, and other public facilities. Changes to existing statute should expand the eligible list of measures for energy savings performance contracting, expand the allowable payback term for deep decarbonization performance contracts, allow some fast payback measures to help fund deferred maintenance needs, and allow a State agency or authority to request to keep a portion of cost savings that result from performance contracts."
