Cutting energy waste, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions, produced
. . . 8% energy savings, across,
. . . 19 million square feet of public, and
. . . private sector buildings since 2009.
The city invested $35 million in energy-saving upgrades,
. . . reducing electricity consumption by 39%, and
. . . cutting electricity bills by $2.5 million each year,
. . . at the Village Creek Water Reclamation Facility,
. . . which treats Fort Worth’s wastewater, for
. . . 23 surrounding communities.
The plant’s anaerobic digester captures, and
. . . recycles methane gas, to generate,
. . . 75% of the facility’s needed electricity onsite.
