2030 Sustainability PlanAdams County is taking action to advance the goals outlined in the 2030 Sustainability Plan. The county participated in a series of work sessions, hosted by Xcel Energy’s Partners in Energy, to develop an Energy Action Plan for all county facilities. This plan outlines strategies to help reduce county facilities’ overall energy use, as well as increase the percentage of electricity coming from renewable sources.

The plan focuses on these goals and strategies from the 2030 Sustainability Plan.

  • Goal 1: Incorporate energy efficiency and new energy technologies and building practices in new facilities and retrofit eligible existing facilities.
    • Strategy 1.1: Continue upgrading the County facility energy system
  • Goal 2: Increase the use and procurement of renewable energy for County facilities.
    • Strategy 2.1: Identify locations for renewable energy installations on County property.
    • Strategy 2.2: Advocate for and pursue renewable energy procurement options with utilities.
