Project Detail |
The goal is for Native Village of Kwigillingok to reduce and stabilize energy costs in tribal buildings by setting energy efficiency improvement goals. The Tribe has identified essential services buildings for this project to include the laundromat, water-plant facility, tribal police office, community building, and the Village clinic.
The Tribe wants energy efficiency improvements that will be a good fit with their Village—systems that they can maintain and that the people will use. This project will produce an Energy Action Plan that will provide a path the Tribe can follow to develop and implement solutions to minimize energy use and maximize energy savings.
The objectives and activities of this project are:
Initiate building monitoring and onsite assessment
Develop a data plan
Establish an initial meeting between Native Village of Kwigillingok Indian Reorganization Act (IRA) Council and the project manager and energy auditor
Select a baseline year
Collect baseline energy data
Survey energy use and identify significant energy users
Develop an Energy Action Plan, Maintenance Plan, and training opportunities
Attend final meeting between Native Village of Kwigillingok IRA Council and the project manager and energy auditor to discuss audit results and next steps.
The project will establish baseline energy use in tribal community buildings for setting energy efficiency improvement goals as well as providing a comparison point for evaluating future efforts. The project will measure energy use and energy intensity at a determined level of detail and will establish a benchmark for future comparison. |
