Begin by gathering 12-24 months of utility bills and contacting a certified auditor through the PUC or DOE's State Energy Program. We can facilitate free preliminary reviews to identify inefficiencies, like outdated HVAC in city halls, leading to quick wins—such as LED retrofits that cut lighting costs by up to 50% per fixture.
Texas municipalities qualify for federal incentives like the 30% Investment Tax Credit (ITC) under the Inflation Reduction Act for solar installations on government properties, plus state rebates through utilities like Oncor or CenterPoint. Programs such as ERCOT's demand response can also pay you for reducing peak usage, potentially saving 5-10% annually while advancing sustainability goals without upfront costs.
