Demonstrated Energy Neutrality Leadership: A Study of Five Champions of Change

The champions of change profiled in this report achieved high energy performance at their respective facilities and their experiences can aid utilities that want to improve their energy management programs. Findings from the case studies highlight new ways of thinking about energy efficiency and recovery, and inspire and propel other water resource recovery facilities to consider approaches to move their facilities toward net-zero energy. The findings also explore opportunities to save costs and enhance sustainability, as well as provide solutions to overcome obstacles common to energy projects. Published by WERF. 106 pages.
